Make Everything Taste Like *Bacon*!

The Wheel.
The Child Leash.
The Pet Rock.

Every so often an individual is blessed with an idea that is so special, so clever, so incredibly genius in its simplicity, it causes the rest of the world to slap their foreheads and exclaim, "Why didn't I think of that!?"

Think about your favorite foods. Now, think about how much better they are when wrapped in bacon. Bacon is like monkeys - it makes everything better. What if a method was devised to supplement all edibles with the delicious flavor and aroma of mouth-watering, sizzling bacon? Wonder no longer, my friends, for the future is now! Two brilliant, enterprising lads from Washington State have captured the awesomeness in a bottle and named it Bacon Salt.

Skeptical? So was I. I eschewed my disbelief and ordered their variety pack -- all three flavors in one glorious package. Last night, I prepared a dinner whose sole purpose was to sample the variety of bacon-y delight that had just arrived in my mailbox. The menu was as follows:

  • Tomato-mozzarella salad, seasoned with Original Bacon Salt
  • Grilled chicken, dry-rubbed with Hickory Bacon Salt
  • Corn-on-the-cob, cooked with butter and Peppered Bacon Salt
  • Redskin smashed potatoes, seasoned with Original Bacon Salt
(Yes, the potatoes were smashed, not mashed. Plebeians eat mashed potatoes.)

My verdict: A bacon-lover's delight. My favorite flavor is definitely Original; don't get me wrong, the others are fantastic, but Original doesn't have other flavors to get in the way of pure, delightful bacon. Hickory is delicious as well, and went very well with the chicken. The Peppered flavor imparts a nice, spicy kick -- too bad the corn itself sucked. That didn't stop me from licking the Bacon Salt off of the corn cob.

Ladies, Gentlemen, and Certis, my culinary life has changed -- for the better. The possibilities with this gift from the Culinary Gods seem limitless: Bacon-seasoned shrimp, baked potatoes, steaks, salads... the list goes on and on. If you like bacon, get some Bacon Salt. If you can't eat bacon due to your vegetarian or kosher lifestyle, well now you can enjoy the flavor of bacon as well. Could the world's future be unified by the love of bacon, bringing a new era of peace? I sure hope so, but in the meantime I'll be enjoying bacon as often as I please.

Interesting. I could see the appeal of this. It's damn sure a good deal healthier than actually eating the bacon (no fat, no calories, no cholesterol, less sodium per serving). I might pick some up and give it a try.

So what do they do, treat salt with some chemical bacon-substitute flavoring?

Sure, and by masturbating you don't have to worry about all the risks of sex with a stranger. This stuff sounds to me like masturbating bacon rather than having sex with it.

Does it list exactly how much sodium is in each serving of the Bacon Salt?

It's artificially flavored; but before you get your hemp panties in a bunch, consider this: What do we eat these days that *isn't* artifically flavored?

Yeah, but the bottle is at home. Don't worry, I sprinkled some on my lunch before I left the house today.

I guess the next step is to create a salt lick using the Bacon Salt and have it at work for when those cravings strike.

I just might start eating oatmeal in the morning again.

EDIT: On the down side, Christmas presents and bacon were the only things we could lord it over the Jews with. I'd better tell the coven to stop this year's War on Christmas.

I'm not sure that "bacon flavored penis" is the best idea, especially if you have pets!

I'll take my culinary orgasms any way I can get them, thank you very much. Like masturbating, using Bacon Salt is also much *easier* than the "real" thing.

If you love bacon, you're just a repressed cannibal.

btw, I had a wonderful BLT for lunch. First time in months, so this is quite a coincidence.

Not to rain on anyone's Bacon parade, but a recent study showed a relationship between eating cured meats and lung disease. So a regular diet of this is probably unwise.

That's your health news for the day. Back to your salt, men.

Well, according to this study, 1/3 of medical studies are wrong.
