THIS is art.

Well. I thought I had seen most of the Bacon related glory the internet has to offer... and then I found this. Oh. My. God. This is the most brilliant collection and display of Bacon love I have ever seen in one place. I...I feel like I need to call my tattoo guy and FAST. Please, enjoy the piggy goodness below, and let your body be the canvas it was meant to with your own personal B-Art.

Wonderous Gallery of Fantabulous Bacon-toos.


Oh my. In other news, I decided, after being inspired by my good buddy Johnny, to try my hand at making candied Bacon. Let me tell you, I'm now 99.9% sure that THIS is what the bible referred to as "mana". Pretty simple to do-- put some brown sugar on bacon and cook in the oven at 400 degrees for 15 or so minutes. But then... oh then.... it's like a meat Willy Wonka factory. Bacon goes in, but something entirely different comes out. Sweet, salty, crunchy, beautiful alchemy-- I have turned Bacon into GOLD. Although next time I think I'll only sugar coat one side; doing both made it a little too sweet and overwhelmed the piggy yum-yum flavor a tad. OOH! And maybe I'll dust some bittersweet chocolate powder on the top as a finish... to the grocer, Batman!
