How Many Licks?
So I was bouncin’ through a bunch of my bacon Google Alerts (look at that fine example of aliteration right there) and came across a link to this post from Gizmodo about the author’s trip to The Candy Expo.
Before I go further with the relevant bacon news, let me just say “Candy Expo” – hells yeah! I have got to find a way to one day get into that show! There are certain trade events that I have always wanted to attend (like CES) and some that I have crossed off the list (Toy Fair). This goes right to the top baby!! Maybe I can get a press pass next year on behalf of TDB??? Hmmmm.
Anywho – this is what I wanted to draw your attention too…
It’s called “Man Bait” and it is a BACON FLAVORED LOLLIPOP!!!KA-POW!
From the maker’s website:
Bacon lovers unite-finally, you can have your dessert that also contains your favorite food group- Bacon!.  This maple and bacon lolli that’s a fiercely delicious combination of real smoky bacon bits and delicious maple syrup giving all at once savory and sweet sensation.
Note: Our lollipops are made with no corn syrup and delicious natural fruit, herb and spice extracts.
Ingredients: sugar, rice syrup, bacon bits, salt, natural smoke flavor, natural bacon flavor, natural maple flavor
And here’s the review from the Gizmodo story:
As gross as it sounds, a lollipop filled with real chunks of bacon, it was the single greatest thing I tasted at the show. Just enough bacon mixes with just enough maple to create a salty/sweet treat that lasted about 20x longer than any strip of bacon you’ve ever consumed.
It doesn’t sound gross at all. It sounds YUMMY!
I’ve ordered a few pops today and I’ll let you know what they are like when I get them. Maybe if a few of you are good little boys and girls, I’ll even share
