Don't get me wrong. I love bacon.........the thick sliced peppered being my favorite and if the house needs an air freshening, I fry up a pan. But I don't think I could swallow a liquid that had any sort of bacon flavoring either.

I haven't even tried it and I already know that I do not like bacon-flavored soda. I very much like bacon-flavored bacon, but ... soda?

No. Just ... no.

The cook at the comapny cafeteria was telling me that there's now a bacon flavored vodka.  I'll await skid's report on the qualities.

A bloody mary made with bacon flavored vodka sounds intriguing.

http://ogdaa.blogspot.com/2011/01/bacon-bourbon-thankyouthankyouthankyou.html  Apparently wirecutter, a man to be trusted regarding the goodness of boozes, approves.

To my dismay, diabetes and heart issues preclude my drinking anything alcoholic for the nonce.  Fortunately, it also precludes partaking of Kool-Aid.

stay safe.

Whyyyyy not just slug down a jigger of Wright's All Natural Hickory Seasoning when the mood strikes you?

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/418KgwHSGdL.jpg

Ingredients:  Water, Natural Hickory Smoke Concentrate.

Distributor:
www.bgfoods.com

I make mock bacon by u-waving hard salami a minute per slice and lacing it with a little of this good stuff.  U-waving melts out most of the fat in the salami.  Result: crunchy bacon-like substance.  Good in salads, too.  Sorta like Baco-bits, but it's "salamo-bits."



But I ain't gonna mix it with my club soda.  I likes me my club soda plain.

We do that with our pizza pepperoni.  Layers of pepperoni between paper towels, into the microwave it goes and comes out crispy with most of the fat removed.  Then it gets put on the pizza and baked where it softens and does not create pools of grease floating on top of the pie.

Seriously, why not just drink warm bacon grease?

I love bacon just as much as anyone else, but the only things that really taste good bacon-flavored is made out of meat.

Pop popcorn in bacon grease.

A friend who watched me make it was absolutely disgusted... then finished the whole bowl.

Let's face it, they use lard for shortening in everything, and the only difference is the bacon fat is smoke-flavored.  In Britain, they make sandwiches out of lard-smeared bread --quite popular, and I believe they call them "lardies."

I am told on good authority that you can't make a decent pie crust without lard as a shortening, and the real secret is to use bacon fat.  Shhh, don't tell anyone.

When I was a kid one of my favoritest breakfasts was bacon and two eggs up and I'd mix up the yolks in the bacon grease in my plate and sop it up with heavily buttered toast.  My mom used to pour extra bacon grease into my plate for me.

Nowadays, at 72, that thought almost turns my stomach.

That's cause you messed your age up. After 50 you get to add a decimal point. So in reality you're only 7.2 years old. Now go mix your yolk up with your grease and sop it up with your toast dammit!  ;)

No. That's my little brother. That friend in question isn't into diaper-play or shoe throwing. Just a "regular" friend I guess you could say.

So that's where they get that "second childhood" stuff from!

My mom would fry up the bacon, put it aside, then "sunny side up" two eggs into the pan full of molten bacon fat, and when the whites were almost done, tip the pan and spoon some hot grease over the yolks,  just enough to "whiten" the surface of the yolks.

Best way to get "once over easy"  eggs without risking breaking the yolks.

I don't think you can do that easily on a flat grill.

Yea, it's that "new math" they've been talking about. I do believe I have spooned the grease in a like manner. It's been a while though.  ;)

My mother just admitted to me in an email that the "squeeze bacon" that ThinkGeek.com came out with last April 1st was real and tried to order it.
