There's Bacon in the Air

OMG, Bacon is just flying out of everywhere these days. So much time and so little to do. Wait a minute. Strike that. Reverse it. Anywhere, here's some random bacon news...

Conan O’Brien said he would bring his show to the Minnesota State Fair if he could have his weight in chocolate-covered bacon. Perhaps a 205-pound bacon-hair-topped chocolate bust will do?

Permanent Brunch is a new eatery in NYC and I've got a date with destiny. On the menu is a Artisanal Bacon Bar where you can choose from New Braunfel's Smokehouse Comal County Peppered Bacon, Hungarian Smoked Kolozvari Bacon, Swiss Sugar-Cubed Cottage Bacon, Burger's Smokehouse Country Sugar Cured Bacon and Meacham Hams Country Bacon. Brunch all day? Why not!

In downtown L.A., Ilan Hall, Season 2's winner of "Top Chef", opened a new restaurant that combines his Scottish and Israeli heritage in quite a creative way. Some of the dishes served at The Gorbals include Bacon-wrapped matzoh balls and Manischewitz-braised pork belly.

And to cap off the day, here's a gem from ABC’s Wife Swap. This kid is hilarious. You can take away his Cheeze Wiz but goddammit, you can't take away his bacon!

  2. I had brunch at Permanent Brunch last Sunday and was totally happy. Chicken and Waffles, and my friend and I tried 3 kinds of bacon. Good stuff.
