Bacon in a tube

A Swedish product introduced to the US, according to ThinkGeek.  It’s like the difference between something squeezed out of a tube of anchovy paste, and an anchovy from a can .  Only it’s bacon.  I don’t see how you can get crispy out of a tube.

 

Due to the patented electro-mechanical process by which Squeez BaconĀ® is rendered, it requires no preservatives or other additives.  Each serving is as healthy as real bacon, and equivalent to 4 premium slices of bacon!

 

Right.  Bacteria won’t touch it, so it must be good.

 

Did you know that it’s rumored ABBA met while eating Squeez BaconĀ® sandwiches?

 

Ooh, too much information!  Or do they actually think mentioning ABBA is a plus?

ChickenFriedBacon

 

It occurs to me that bacon is the porn of meats.  Bacon is not kosher or halal, and with good reason.  Pigs wallow in the mud, they eat like you-know-whats, and they carry some really disgusting parasites.  Cholesterol is baaad, m’kay?  Fat is worse than lean meat, everybody knows that.  That’s why the bacon companies line up the strips under the plastic window so the bacon looks mostly lean.

 

We know that eating meat is bad for the planet.  Vegetarians feel superior to meat eaters, and vegans feel superior to vegetarians.  Even I, an unrepentant meat eater, feel better if I don’t eat too much meat.

 

Bacon is the perfect storm of everything that’s wrong with meat.  And chicken-fried bacon… I found it by googling “bacon porn”.  ‘Nuff said.

baconExplosion

 

BBQAddicts.com has the recipe and tutorial for this cholesterol bomb.  Two pounds of Italian sausage and two pounds of bacon, rolled up like a cinnamon roll and slow-cooked in a smoker.  It does sound tasty, and it’s not covered in French fries.
