Seduce Me

And this is the way to do it:

Seduced by Bacon by Joanna Pruess is filled with irresistible bacon recipes. Tempt your loved one with the come-hither smell of bacon this Valentine’s Day. You can see a few of the recipes here. Photographs by Liesa Cole are indeed seductive. Even shots of skillets and non-bacon ingredients look damn sexy.






The baconista blog is good for you.

Well, for the most part anyway... The Gematriculator determines how good or evil a website is by searching for different patterns in text. The baconista blog is 76% good (as compared to ILWTR’s measly 60%) and only a mere 24% evil. But could you truly enjoy anything if it weren't just a teeny bit evil? The site says:

“Experts consider the mathematical patterns in the text of the Holy Bible as God’s watermark of authenticity. Thus, the Gematriculator provides only results that are absolutely correct.

So basically, God wants you to eat bacon.

Bacon is NOT why you’re fat!

This is Why You’re Fat is a blog of visual commentary on America’s disgusting eating habits and obesity problems. An alarming amount of the dishes posted involve lots of bacon... But I say don’t go blaming bacon for your lack of self-control! If you have weight issues maybe you shouldn’t be making a boat out of meat. I have to admit, some of the images on the site are pretty disgusting. However, many of them look downright tasty! There’s no reason you can’t enjoy bacon in moderation... 
 
Although, I guess a Double Bacon Hamburger Melt isn’t quite moderate.

But a Bacon Shell Taco isn’t so terrible—just eat one!

More Bacon & Bourbon

As you can see, there is no shortage of bacon and bourbon lovers out there. By far one of the coolest events I’ve been to... ever... in life.


Applewood smoked bacon samples being passed around while Josh Ozersky spoke of the importance of a 50/50 meat to fat ratio in bacon. He compared it to a well balanced meal in which “the fat is the meat and the meat is the vegetables.” Ozersky also recommends Benton’s bacon and his preferred method of cooking bacon is in the oven at 375°.


Scott Smith from RUB shares with us step-by-step his recipe for making BBQ Bacon Chunks—cured, triple smoked and deep fried in lard. Note to self: Eat at RUB very, very soon!



Bacon & Bourbon—a wildly successful pairing. Read more about the event here. And check out video from The Feedbag.

Making Bacon Complicated

Owen Morris of the Pitch Blog shares his bacon making flow chart (click to enlarge). Seriously?.. No one should be cooking anything without pants—it's just unsanitary. 

Bacon made me do it...

William Baker of Freckleton, England was driven to beat his girlfriend Theresa Fitzpatrick after an argument over bacon sandwiches! No one should ever use bacon as an excuse for bad behavior! Tsk, tsk...

Just Add Bacon

Does your website need a side of bacon? Simply add “http://bacolicio.us” to the beginning of your url and a big slab of bacon appears across your page like so:


Yes, it's odd but that's one tasty looking piece of bacon. Thanks to Jeremy for confusing the hell out of me.
