Bacon Floss

Bacon Floss

The folks at Perpetual Kid seem to have the least expensive Bacon Floss. Maybe this would help me floss more often. I brush enough that a bacon toothpaste really wouldn’t be much of an incentive. Although i imagine it would taste like bacon mints… which really are not very good!

Damn those guys at J&D’s are crafty.  First they make bacon salt.  Brilliant.  Then Baconnaise – i’m not a fan of mayo but have not tried this yet.  Then bacon lip balm… and now?  Bacon flavored personal lubricant.  Baconlube.

Sign up now to become a beta tester.  Sadly, i have nobody to try it out with – but i bet if i had a sample i could find some willing!

US Olympic baseball jersey looks like bacon

Today while ordering a bacon cheeseburger the US Olympic baseball team was on the television.  I couldn’t help staring at the jerseys.  They sure look like the “S” has been constructed out of bacon!

Bacn is like Spam but better

From the NPR story… “bacn is e-mail you want to read — just not now.” Check out the story on NPR or go to the official website.

Bacn Spotting Guide

Spam versus bacn. How can you tell the difference? It’s easy. An e-mail offering you an incredible deal on Viagra is spam, since you (probably) didn’t solicit it. Bacn is e-mail you asked for, and eventually want to read. Below are some examples of bacn:

  • An e-mail from an airline updating your frequent flier account
  • An e-mail from you favorite pet store announcing a sale on gerbil supplies
  • An e-mail from your local newspaper with a rundown of the day’s headlines
  • An e-mail from Facebook announcing that you have a new friend
  • An e-mail from your bank with your monthly balance

Bacon ice cream

June 16, 2008 9:36 pm

I know, I know.  A whole month without a post?  I’ve go so much going on at work and home that little time or energy is available for my many side projects.  But I had some bacon over the weekend which reminded me to do some work here.

Check out the news article about the guy that made an award winning bacon and egg flavored ice cream.

COOK WANTEO’S Chrispy Bacon

May 14, 2008 3:53 pm

In the town near where I spent my summers at scout camp was a restaurant that some of the staff went to a few times a summer.  They had one of those marquee signs that you can change the letters on and one day it said “COOK WANTEO.”  It seems that they had run out of D’s and didn’t think we would notice.  We were there for breakfast and on the menu was a side of “chrispy bacon.”  I ordered it and so did Pat — one of my scouting idols.  We joked about the spelling error through the meal and when leaving mentioned to the waitress to tell Wanteo that the bacon was nice and chrispy.

Somehow this has seemed much funnier for the past 20 years.

Crispy Bacon Frazzles

I have never heard of Frazzles before. But anything (well, almost anything) with bacon flavoring has got to be good. Crispy Bacon Frazzles as noticed via Sheeshoo’s Flickr photo below.

Crispy bacon Frazzles From a review… “an excellent bacon taste at first, then the corn chip flavor comes through. If Fritos ever came out with a Bacon flavor, then they would taste like these. My only regret is that the bag is too small.”
