Bacon, Bacon, Bacon

Bacon, Bacon, Bacon….

This is actually part of a family song and dance that my little girls and I perform when I make a food that they really like.  The song was originally about tuna fish sandwiches, but also applies to bacon, pancakes, pizza, and all the major child food groups.

Remember the cool dance they did? 

How does the dance go?  Well, one has to picture “The Breakfast Club” movie.  It is from the mid-1980s with Emilio Estevez, Aly Sheedy, and other good actors whose names I cannot remember.

I see IHOP in my future!

Back to the bacon subject…There is no odor quite as enticing as cooking bacon.  That odor weaves through the house, clings to one’s hands, and splatters onto the clothes.  Technically, bacon is a “gift that keeps on giving” all day long.

This BACON love is growing.

Jack-in-the-Box: the new Bacon Shake

Jack-in-the-Box recently released a new milk-shake:  Bacon shake, which is vanilla milk-shake into which the essence of bacon oil is added.  YUMMMMY!

AND, if that wasn't all, they have a new BLT commercial.  A young man falls in love with, and then marries the Jack-in-the-Box BACON BACON Cheeseburger.  Bliss comes in all forms.  You can see this special marital union at marrybacon.com

Be sure to have a box of tissues (and napkins) handy.

Admit it:  We have all bought something here.

San Diego County Fair (and other fairs) has had deep-fat fried, chocolate coated bacon as one of its fine dining options in the food vendors.

These are not real turtles, they're faux turtles.

Bacon is the new gourmet taste. 

So ends my tribute to the food of the gods:  BACON

Clearly this is my love song for bacon.  If you want to sign up for  “Love is in the Air” blogfest, click on this:  Love Is In The Air!
