bring to a festering boil: Has bacon finally jumped the shark?

Not until pigs fly.


we may not be able to farm the bastards then, but the Miracle on the Hudson would have been 100,000 times more delicious if this was the case.

It's more expensive due to the higher proof and 5 additional years in the barrel for the greedy angels to get their share. I'm not a Beam white label drinker, but I will drink KC without hesitation.

The charred oak does lots of good work in those 5 years.

/at least they didn't bring up Basil Hayden
//it is just older Old Grand Dad
///Beam is actually distilling/barreling for each label now

Nogale: What good would having Australia for a day do you?

If owned Australia for a day and knew I had to give it back, i'd throw a big party and trash the place. So, think of it as a 24 hour party with no rules and no bill for damages. In Australia.

/Or you could sieze power and be the next Hitler.
//Also this is the trick answer, because Australia contains bacon!

Great Justice: Farkers hold bacon in very high esteem, but I wonder how much love it. A survey:

Would you rather have bacon (1/2 lb), or:
1. Gold (1 oz)
2. Megan Fox (for 1 hour)
3. Australia (for a day)
4. White Rhino (1/2 lb, choice cut)
5. Unwatch all Michael Bay movies (forever, or until you watch again for some reason)


I have waaay more than that 1/2 lb of bacon in the fridge, so I'm gonna go with 2

I miss bacon. I've got to loose weight, and bacon was the biggest sacrifice that I made (soda and fried foods got cut out too). You know that scene in A Scanner Darkly where Arctor is on the New Path farm, and the guy tells him that the blue flowers aren't for him, because he's already had too much of a good thing? That's how I feel about bacon.

Turkey bacon is OK I guess. It's like comparing your true love to a crack whore. Sure you get to cum, but it's just not as happy of a moment.

/At least I've already dropped 20lbs.

Bacon and garlic have both jumped the shark, but I just can't stop. Mmm, bacon-wrapped garlic shark steaks, mmm...

What a coincidence. I was just biatching about the "bacon craze" in the bacon thread YESTERDAY. I doubt you all love and consume bacon as much as you claim.
 
2009-10-07 08:34:19 PM
I love bacon too. But what is even better than regular bacon is bacon seasoned with bacon salt. MMMMM it is like double bacon in every bite. I have to say devilskware I did eat as much bacon as talked about in this post,and love bacon as much as talked about in the post, for example in the month of June my husband and I ate 2 lbs of bacon every week and then talked about and dreamed about eating more bacon. It was amazing!
Now granted at the moment I am watching what I eat, and exercising so I only eat about 1 lb of bacon per month. However I still love bacon and dream about the weekend when I can make some seasoned bacon in the oven.

bacon grease as lube for Megan

bacon grease as lube for whatever Aussie hottie you hook up with whe you have Australia for a day

Bacon wrapped white rhino meat has to be better than plain white rhino meat

bacon helps me forget michael bay films till I run out of bacon.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if bacon jumped the shark, wouldn't the shark jump out of the water and eat the bacon?

Stupid sharks, always hogging all the bacon. Would it kill you to share, you stupid fish?

Asplenium: An-Unnecessarily-Long-Name: trancemission: Meh. I'll stick with Knob Creek, half sweet and half dry (perfect).

You mean expensivebetter bourbon than Jim Beam?

Beam is pretty horrid

If you're going to go with cheap bourbon, at least go with Wild Turkey. If you feel like spending money, than go with Blanton's.

And bacon jumped the shark over a year ago. Yes, we all know it's delicious; let's stop talking about it.


callmeox: An-Unnecessarily-Long-Name: trancemission: Meh. I'll stick with Knob Creek, half sweet and half dry (perfect).

It's more expensive due to the higher proof and 5 additional years in the barrel for the greedy angels to get their share. I'm not a Beam white label drinker, but I will drink KC without hesitation.

The charred oak does lots of good work in those 5 years.

/at least they didn't bring up Basil Hayden
//it is just older Old Grand Dad
///Beam is actually distilling/barreling for each label now


Wow 2 wrongs!!!

Beam is decent especially for the price.

And....

Knob Creek is a bourbon produced by the Jim Beam distillery in Clermont, Kentucky. It is part of Jim Beam's line of small-batch bourbons tapping into the high-end liquor market

Speakin of "jumping the shark"...
I just this evening heard an interview with Henrey Winkler (on CBC Radio, "Q" - the show that brought out the best in Billy Bob Thornton a few months back), in which the host asked him whether he thought that Happy Days had "jumped the shark", so to speak, in the episode when the Fonz literally jumped over a shark. Winkler replied in the negative, citing as evidence the fact that Happy Days remained the number 1 show in the USA for 4 or 5 consecutive years AFTER that now-famous episode.

I found an awesome bacon supplier. A butcher. His shop is within spitting distance of a pig farm. His bacon is sublime, It makes Hormel or Oscar Mayer taste like strips of garbage cured in vomit, I was buying 5lbs at a time and calling it a weeks supply. Then I realized I weighed 320lbs. I walked away from this bacon of the gods. I haven't eaten a so much as a single strip in over a year and I now weigh about 100lbs less.

It wasn't the bacon's fault, but bacon will never help. Sure, as an emotional bandage it works just fine and is wonderful at filling the emptiness in your soul, but physically bacon does no good, it wont even satisfy your hunger. You will never get enough bacon. Perhaps that is part of it's allure, it always leaves you wanting more.

Every time I see a package of bacon in the grocery store or see a particularly moving image of bacon on the net I hear Terry Jacks 'Seasons in the Sun' play in my head.
