Holy mother of food - if I was anywhere near here... I gotta try this!

David Burke's Primehouse Executive Chef Rick Gresh takes bacon love to a whole new level with the creation of his Bacon Candle. It’s made with rendered bacon fat and stands at 2 inches tall with a vegetable base wick, but the kicker is how you actually use the candle.
The candle emits a delicious-smelling bacon aroma and is poured over dry aged beef, scallop sashimi, or any other delectable treat worthy enough to be covered in bacon (so in other words, almost everything).

Are you a bacon-trepreneur? If you can capitalize on the power of bacon - you too can be rich (and tasty)

Even restaurants are busy bringing on the grease: A recent study by the Chicago-based research firm Mintel found that menu items with bacon at both fast-food and full-service restaurants are up 26.5 percent since 2005.

"Why not?" says Justin Esch, one of the self-described "bacon-trepreneurs" behind Bacon Salt. "Bacon is the most powerful force in the world. It's not even a joke."

Bacon FTW!

You read that right - a bacon rocket, complete with song!

18 ... Wonderful ... Bacon .. Wrapped ... Fooods ah ah ah.

Maybe some you haven't tried?

I love bacon, and so do you, everyone does. If you don't, you are crazy. You see this? It's me pointing at you, calling you crazy. I love bacon so much, I tried wrapping myself in it in high school. Bacon doesn't hold up well when you are stuffed into a locker, it gets offensively rank. Since then I've stuck to wrapping foods with it. I'm not sure where bacon comes from, but I'm pretty sure it's grown on trees like apples, oranges and french fries. Check out these 18 amazingly delicious foods wrapped in bacon.

Here's another one for you candied bacon fans ....

Yes, indeed. This unique appetizer snack is made with cocoa powder, brown sugar, and bacon. It is so simple yet so addictive. You won't really notice a chocolate flavor, more like a smoky richness complemented by the kick of the chipotle chile powder. Keep a stockpile for a quick snack or to amaze your party guests. It really is that good. You will need thick-cut bacon for this recipe.

This one's slightly different from the last in that you actually start by baking the potatoes....

Looks hella good eh?

Taking food to new geek levels of bacony goodness - you cant beat this one.

Tonight I had a moment of inspiration while cooking dinner. I was craving bacon really badly (as everyone does) so I decided to make some bacon wrapped chicken. However, to spice it up a bit, I wanted to do something fun and unique. So I took it to the next level. It was time for some Bacon Chicken Narwhal!

You heard right!!!

The winning entry in the Woodford Reserve Manhattan Experience at the Houston Museum of Natural Science featured a Manhattan augmented with maple syrup and candied bacon, a concoction devised by Derek Black, bartender at The Rockwood Room.

Is there no end to the bacon goodness? I don't think so.

Check out this picture - the only thing I could think of when viewing it is calling and yelling "what do you mean I cant do that? - It's bacon!"

Just wanted to point out that it wasn't bacon flavored soap as you'd end up eating it and that wouldn't end well.

I dunno what my lass would think of me smelling of yummy smoky bacon but heck, I'm fine with finding out.

Only $5.95 - my call, wash with bacon soap and then use the Star Trek cologne... FTW!

I think I found myself a new football snack!

Tac Bac - Tactical Canned Bacon is the very best canned bacon we've ever tasted. Not mushed up like dog food, this bacon is in actual strips - blessed with the magic of preservatives to last over 10 years in the can

For $15.99 it's well worth a try.

Link: http://baconcamp.org/Bacone

A Ice Cream Cone Shaped pile of bacon you can load eggs and cheese into ?!?!? !?!?

Holy Crap!

Fill the Bacone with a mixture of scrambled eggs, hash browns, and cheese (I use colby jack). Fill the Bacone until almost full and add a layer of country gravy. Atop the gravy, add a biscuit. Just a little warning, and I'm serious here, the first bite is pure heaven.

If you saw this video earlier or not, the remix rules!

It's deep fried butter ! - Ok, even though there's no bacon in this one... it still is awesome.

"100 percent pure butter is whipped 'til light and fluffy, then specially sweetened with a choice of several flavors." It is then surrounded by a "special dough" and quick-fried.

This is so new and cutting edge (and heart stopping) there are no available pics. (sorry!)

Article has other deep fried winners from this year.

Link: http://www.seriouseats.com/talk/2009/08/saving-bacon-fat.html

I didn't think about this really - I usually put it into a coffee can to keep it from clogging the sink trap.

This particular discussion shows you the merits of saving it - preferably in a closed glass jar in the fridge... for later use.

Such as frying eggs - or grilled cheese.

I've gotta find me a glass jar.......

Want a Coffee? no. Want one that tastes like bacon? Oh yes!

Say hello to the Maple Bacon Latte—a double espresso latte spiked with organic maple syrup and homemade bacon, sprinkled with Bac-Os—available now at Pirate Radio Café.

Think of this concoction as the Canadian Mountie of coffee drinks. It's a beautiful marriage of two culinary powerhouses: De La Paz espresso beans and organic Prather Ranch bacon—providing an extra kick that'll help you sail into the weekend.

For now only in San Francisco - but hopefully coming soon to a coffee near you!
