Big Gay Bacon Ice Cream

The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck is coming your way! Serious Eats reports that the latest fancy food truck will be serving up rainbow sprinkle-topped treats to the West Village during the day and the East Village and Chelsea at night. Other toppings include Olive Oil & Sea Salt, Nutella, and... Bacon! If you show up at the truck window sporting BGICT gear, you’ll be offered a delicious discount! Got to love the “husband beater.” Find out where the truck will be on twitter. Summer has me obsessing over bacon ice cream—I’m also following the General Greene cart. Just hoping and waiting for Elvis to make an appearance...

Bacon rumors...

According to Slice, there is a possibility that Co.—Jim Lahey's new Chelsea pizzeria—may be serving up a pie involving Kentucky bacon. Very exciting. Regardless of whether bacon makes it on the menu or not, I look forward to trying "the Dom." It must be good if it's paying homage to Di Fara's.
