You’ve got to love a country where a Caesar salad includes a big helping of Bacon:
All hail Caesar Bacon!
Tactical Bacon
“C” sends me a link of fantastic mmmm-ness. CMMG Tactical Bacon, TB-1, 9oz, 10+ Year Shelf Life:
The ultimate tactical accessory, the new Tactical Bacon from CMMG ® is simply amazing. Kept in an aluminum can for a shelf life of 10+ years, the CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is more affordable than other pre-cooked bacon producers, who offer no tactical packaging for their product. Including 9 ounces of pre-cooked bacon goodness, comparable to 3 pounds of raw bacon, the CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is perfect for camping trips, survival situations, a snack at the range, zombie attacks, and many other apocalyptic scenarios. Able to be eaten cold, or heated up, CMMG ® Tactical Bacon is sure to please bacon lovers of all ages.
Note the combined bonus price: if you buy the Tactical Bacon with a “Glock Factory Part, Disassembly Tool” you’ll save some dinero!
Bacon Bubble
Okay, I’m calling it. We have officially reached the top of the Bacon loving bubble. Why? The dress made of Bacon indicator has been tripped. This indicator has a 50 percent probability of beating the magic 8 ball in predicting the top of past Bacon bubbles. I predict a hard landing for Bacon lovers everywhere. Until they shed their few extra pounds (a lagging indicator) we are entering a dark period for Bacon.
Hat tip: Jorge.
Don't Mess With Dabacon
Notice the evil smile:
Circa a long time ago.
Bacon Home Shopping
Via Mark, I get an unusual home shopping network:
Nobacon
A former student sent me what appears to be my doppelganger: Danbert Nobacon. Life with no bacon, well that’s just crazy.
In other Bacon related news: Jorge sends me Bacon Vodka…from Seattle. This will surely save me time because frying up bacon to mix in my wodka for my bacon vodka martini was always a real time sink.
Best Bacon Desert?
Jorge sends me a link to The Best (Bacon) Dessert Ever?: a bacon-topped blue cheese panna cotta. Uh oh, Mrs. Pontiff has competition! Luckily this creation is just down the hill from our home at the Palace Kitchen, so we’ll be able to compare and really find out if it is the best bacon desert ever.
Double Double Bacon Style
Via torque: In-N-Out…Now with Bacon. No, unfortunately In-N-Out is not adding Bacon to it’s secret menu. But dude: Bacon and a Double Double. I’m not quite sure how I feel about that.
Flaming Bacon
Matt points me to Bacon: the Other White Heat:
I recently committed myself to the goal, before the weekend was out, of creating a device entirely from bacon and using it to cut a steel pan in half. My initial attempts were failures, but I knew success was within reach when I was able to ignite and melt the pan using seven beef sticks and a cucumber.
Spicy Pi Bacon Squared Wins!
Woot! Mrs. Pontiff’s entry into the Scienceblogs pie competition is the winner! Mrs. Pontiff is on a role. This year we decided not to buy each other gifts for Valentines day. So instead of buying a gift, Mrs. Pontiff entered a photo contest from a flower company and won me some beautiful flowers. We need to plan our trip to Las Vegas immediately.
Thanks to all who voted and to the dog for not jumping up and eating the pie off the table. And a special shout out to Bacon, is there anything it can’t do?
Lisa: I’m going to become a vegetarian
Homer: Does that mean you’re not going to eat any pork?
Lisa: Yes
Homer: Bacon?
Lisa: Yes, Dad.
Homer: Ham?
LIsa: Dad all those meats come from the same animal!
Homer: Right Lisa, some wonderful, magical animal!
