Ok guys, it's time we tackle this bacon craze that has swept America. It's getting a bit out of hand. Why would anyone, anywhere want to suck down a bacon milkshake? Eat a bacon taco made out of a
bacon shell? Drink bacon vodka? Frost a cake with BACON FROSTING?
Phew, I got a lil' bit of angina just typing that.
First of all, all of this "I <3 bacon" talk clearly puts sausage, the true #1 breakfast meat, at a disadvantage. There are serious logistical problems in forming a sausage taco shell. Plus, sausage links are WAY harder to suck up in a milkshake straw.
I mean, I'm totally guessing on that last one.
Bacon should be the Robin of a meal, not the Batman. (Alternatively, the Barnacle Boy rather than the Mermaid Man if you're a Spongebob Squarepants fan.) It's nicer as the sidekick rather than the scene-stealing action hero.
The little bit of bacon in this turkey sandwich makes it as delicious as Christian Bale looks in Batman.
Tasty.
