Bacon Updates

The move is hopefully almost over, but I did have a moment to sit down and check up on my two favorite bacon related sites. Mr. Bacon Pants, and Bacon Unwrapped. They are always sure to have the latest news on Bacon and they didn't disappoint when I went there tonight. Mr. Bacon Pants has some great clips about bacon in the recent news while Bacon Unwrapped has a link to Paris Hilton frying bacon (every boy's dream I'm sure) and the added info that April is BLT month. Apparently the BLT is America's second favorite sandwich (this fact was given by Mr. Bacon Pants). I've always wondered why the BLT has been a favorite and the BLTC (Bacon Lettuce tomato and cheese) sandwich has never quiet taken off. Although I normally like my bacon a little less then crispy I have to agree with Mr Bacon Pants that for a BLT it must be crispy through and through. How do you like yours? Let us know and also let us know if we have missed out on any great Bacon related stories! 

Enjoy,

If you haven't by now

So if you haven't yet started reading Mr. Bacon Pants Blog continually, this is for you. He has put up video of the Bacon eating contest where contestants had to eat up to 3 lb. of bacon in 5 min! I'd say on Bacon day, for a person who enjoys all three meals and everything in between eats maybe a 1 lb. some perhaps a bit more, and that's over 24 hrs. This is an incredible thing to see, but I don't think I'll be signing up for a bacon eating contest anytime soon.

The Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival

I will sadly not be able to attend this event over the weekend, but Mr. Bacon Pants (Jason Mosley) will be there and blogging away. Apparently this event sold out in one day... I bet it was the t-shirts. I will try to give links to his posts over the weekend, but I might also just sit in the kitchen and create my own bacon tasting.
