MMMMM Bacon!

MMMMM BACON!

In the famous words of Homer Simpson, mmmmm Bacon, mmmm Beer.

  No other place Homer could find as a dream bar come true, but a place that serves Bacon and Beer.

If Mo Szylak has an idea to keep Homer as a customer this just might be it; although, I don't feel Homer leaving Mo's anytime soon. But this Happy Hour er Bacon Happy Hour idea has Homer in mind written all over it. And our Yellow fat friend would be front and center chowing down the bacon, pouring the grease down his throat, while holding a frosty one in his hand.

I think I gained 10 pounds and felt my arteries harden after reading this allegory.

Enjoy this Bacon laden story...

Bar Holds Bacon Happy Hour

(CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) - Brews and bacon draw the patrons into one Baltimore bar.
Bad Decisions hosts a monthly event named Beer & Bacon Happy Hour, according to AOL News . Patrons' choices include a bacon-filled dinner menu, bacon-themed cocktails and bowls of bacon.
Forget peanuts and pretzels. Drinkers get baskets of bacon on which to snack between brews.
Owner John Reusing said the event draws dozens to his dive.
"Some of my regulars factor Bacon Happy Hour into their monthly budgets, right next to rent and groceries. They take it very seriously," he said to AOL News.
Reusing figures he goes through 50 pounds of free Applewood smoked bacon each month. Another 40 pounds go towards the specialty bacon dishes and cocktails like the Habanero Pepper Mojita, a minty rum mojito with habanero peppers and bacon crumbles.
As far as food goes, area chefs helped him come up with dishes such as grilled bacon kabobs, bacon shrimp and bacon cinnamon rolls.
Weird? The Cafemom blog Stir suggested it isn't the weirdest food and festivity fascination. There's been such ones as beer and churros, Vino and Vienna sausages and pancake bites and Peppermint Schnapps.
Reusing also isn't the only one to capitalize on the popularity of bacon. Business blog Inc. reported there's Bacon Baby Infant Formula, candied bacon macarons with cream cheese frosting and Maple Bacon Pecan ice cream.
For those who don't want to leave the house to get their pork on, there's Bacon of the Month clubs such as one sponsored by BaconFreak.com . Members get two packages of bacon a month. Choices range from hickory, pepper and bacon bacon to Cajun and vanilla bourbon bacon.
There is also bacon brittle, bacon coffee, bacon jerky and even a Santa Pig Christmas card.
