    Is anyone else feeling queasy about the bacon-in-everything thing? I'll tell you what pushed me over the cured pork edge: the recently opened "meat bar" at Shaka Zulu in London, which serves a range of carnivorous cocktails including Bloody Bacons. These alcoholic fry-ups in a glass feature bacon vodka and crispy smoked bacon. And a skewer of soft cheese on the side.

    It's just the latest in a run of worrying bacon news. The US is braced for its first bacon reality TV show. And Burger King recently launched a bacon sundae – vanilla ice cream slathered in fudge sauce and topped with lardons. Oliver Thring might enjoy the latter as an amusing pudding course to a hot dog stuffed crust pizza but for my money bacon mania is spinning out of control.


    Quote
    Figures from the British Pig Executive (BPEX) confirm that consumers are becoming more and more enraptured with rashers. We ate over 226,000 tonnes of bacon in the year to April 2012, 4% more than the previous year. The organisation now holds a Bacon Connoisseurs' week annually to celebrate the best of British.


    ^^ we got more ex muslims than we did last year, that's why.   Cheesy Cheesy

    But bacon flavoured toothpaste?  I'm just not sure.  need to try it to see.

    OTOH I have just found out through this article that bacon can be added to just about anything so that 4% could be set to rise.   Cheesy

    No.. the growth ex-Muslims is more than 4% .. more than the growth of bacon eaters..

    Berbs, do you know how Frazzles are the most amazing crisps?

    The way they melt on your tongue too.

    Bacon flavoured wheat snacks is what they're called.

    But I prefer to call bacon 'Frazzles flavoured meat' because they are the greatest thing since bacon itself.

    and yea, frazzle crisps are awesome.

    When I went to Norway they served warm bacon crisps at the fucking cinema   mysmilie_977  it was like heaven.  Can't believe the UK is still just jelly sweets, nachos, hot dogs and pop corn.  finmad

    If I was Norwegian I would go to the cinema just to eat the warm bacon crisps. Buy a ticket to a film, get two portions (at least), sit in my seat (even if its a sold out showing, so I have to get everyone to stand up to let me to my seat, smiling and apologising as I go), sit down in my seat, eat my bacon crisps, then get up and leave, making everyone stand up, fuck the film.
