Actually - Bacon hit the NY Post - featured - big time - in Wednesday's food section - highlighting this weekend's Brooklyn Bacon Take-down -
- We laughed when - Bacon Explosion - first appear'd -
- We were shocked on learning of its 390,000 downloads - via the NY Times - no less -
- We were envious when we learn that the Bacon Explosion had landed its authors a six figure cookbook deal
- We were flabbergasted watching the West Coast reported go 30 days on only bacon - and - astounded that he not only lived to tell about it - but - lowered his blood press - AND - dropped a few pounds -
- I personally made Bacon Bourbon -
- We've marveled at Grilled Cheese With Bacon Without Bread -
So what's going on -
- Is Bacon Sex ? - something we could never talk about but with everyone enjoyed -
- If Barbara Walters can joke about vibrators on The View - can't we eat salted and smoked pork without risking death -
- As we sit down for breakfast - scrambled eggs & bacon - do we consider that to get those ingredients on our plate - the chicken was "concerned" but the pig was "committed -
The bottom line message - enjoy - its not going to kill you -
IN MY YOUTH, AFTER SCHOOL, IN CHICAGO-- WE WOULD STOP OFF AT THE LOCAL DRUGSTORE
SODA FOUNTAIN AND HAVE A' 'LOTTE' SPECIAL.'
IT CONSISTED OF A CRISPY HOT DOG ON AN ORDINARY HOT DOG BUN WHICH WAS THEN WRAPPED IN 2 STRIPS OF BACON. THE WHOLE SANDWICH WAS PLACED ON A DOUBLE -SIDED GRILL. BACON VERY CRISP, VERY BACON GREASY,
IT CAME HOT , SMASHED DOWN, AND CUT IN HALF BUT SERVED WITH A PICKLE, WE SHARED A HALF THEN WE DIPPED OUR BACON -HOT DOG SANDWICH IN A PUDDLE OF HEINZ CHILI SAUCE. CFH --
