Bacon Pic of The Day – Lunch at Slows

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you…

The Triple Threat at Slows Bar-B-Q in Detroit.

A pile of pulled pork and bacon covered by a slab of ham, all on Texas toast. I polished this beauty off with about 1/4 bottle of their sweet sauce and a side of cole slaw.  Proud member of the clean plate club today!

Now that’s Lunch!

Bacon Pic of the Day – Bacon Brunch…

How do you not stop in your tracks, turn immediately right and enter this restaurant??

If you can’t read it, allow me to spell things out for you:

1. The Sampler – strips of bacon from farms in three different states, bacon marmalade on cheddar biscuit

2. The Entree – choice from 4 bacon favorites – blt, mac & cheese, pizza, grilled cheese

3. The Bacon Brownie – served warm with side of Jack Daniels whipped cream.

I WOULD NOT LEAVE THE RESTAURANT!

More about this dining experience from the young lady who took this picture (and ate the food) over at “Blondie and Brownie“…

Video Game Bacon – Bacon Taps

Got a Droid? Love bacon? Need a time waster?

There’s an app for that…Bacon Taps! The object of the game? Tap the bacon to score 10 points. Don’t let it’s simplicity fool you. It gets surprisingly tougher as you move on.

Fast Food Friday – Gettin’ My Salad On at Wendy’s…

Welcome back to “Fast Food Friday“!  It’s been awhile…

For the newbies, this feature started with me comparing bacon and bacon burgers at various fast food chains surrounding my home and former office.  We were on a roll there for a while but then I ran out of fast food places and “Fast Food Friday’s went dormant.

Well bust out the tray liners cause I’m back baby! But this week, we’re checking out a salad.  A Salad???  Let me explain…

In the spirit of full exposure - a few weeks back I get this mysterious email saying that this person had a $10 Wendy’s gift card for me if I was willing to try one of their new premium salads.  Not knowing if this was a scam or not I sent the email back.  Fast forward a week and BAM, gift card in the mail!  SWEET!!! 

Being a man of my word, I took my card and went to get a salad…

Champaign Wishes and Bacon Caviar Dreams…

Okay.

I love bacon, this is true. You enjoy bacon, otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this. I have defended the bacon movement from those who have proclaimed that bacon’s light is waining. But this just might be my “jump the shark moment”.

Courtesy of California Caviar Company:

Bacon & Eggs are one of our favorite combinations, we’ve combined the two to bring the newest and most exciting addition to our infused roes. Using Nueske’s Applewood smoked bacon, this roe has the perfect balance of smokiness and sweetness with a hint of black pepper. Perfect with bagels and cream cheese for breakfast.

Yes my friends, bacon infused cavair (get it, bacon and “eggs”).

If you feel adventurous, pop on over and pick up your 1 oz. jar for $15.00.

Thanks to FoTDB Megan (SHOUT OUT) for the tip.

My Font of Choice!

Behold…

BACONVETICA.

Oh, if I could, I would only write/type with this! 

The problem is I’d be hungry all the time with a lingering, phantom salty taste in my mouth.  A pure picture of the Pavlovian process I would be. 

Sadly, this is just a fine art project, not a functionable font.  Still, very bacon cool!
