I can feel my arteries clogging up just looking at it.

There should be Bacon Explosion Eating Contests on ESPN. Anyone who can make it through all four pounds without dying wins the trophy.

They could round up all those Professional Eating dudes who are on the Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest every year and give them a shot at it. Let's see if that skinny little Japanese kid who always wins the Nathan's contest can survive downing one of THOSE sum-b*tches!!

My heart hurts just reading that article.

As would I.

Over the summer a friend of mine from work was home alone for a week while his wife and kids went on a vacation. He was hungry and in the mood for bacon. So he went into the refrigerator took out the pound of bacon that he had and cooked the whole thing and made one really big sandwich out of it. He said it was good but he'll never do that again. He almost couldnt finish it. haha

Homer Simpson would be proud.

I'd like to try that. My wife made BLT's the other night for dinner. The whole house smelled of bacon when I walked in the door. Mmmmmmmm bacon. Anyway, I'm looking at it, thinking "I could eat that whole package right now". It'd probably make me sick, but it would be worth it.

Reminds me of something I saw on the internetz.

The bacon weave sandwich, in which you weave bacon together to form two pieces of "bread" then you put some cheese in the middle of the two weaves and make a grilled-cheese sandwich.

That looks unbelievably tasty, yet at the same time looking like something a japanese cow shat out..... I must be sick

The wife made pork chops wrapped in bacon for dinner last night. Mmmmmmm bacon-y goodness!!

Why didn't she just wear an apron? It seems it would hinder her progress cooking the pork chops if she were wrapped in pig flesh.

I prefer my women wrapped in bacon. Bacon makes everything better!

Reminds me a breakfast sandwich Hardee's had last year. Maybe they still have it I dont know. I don't remeber what is was called but it was eggs,cheese,ham,sausage, and bacon all in a biscuit. Everyone I told about it said their heart hurt just hearing about it! Yes it was tasty but it was piled so high I could hardly eat it.

Bacon and peanut butter on a sandwich is pretty good.

I have a buddy that used to eat that all the time. I love bacon and I love peanut butter, but something didn't sit right with me when I tried to bring those worlds together.

Never tried that, but hell, just about anything with peanut butter is pretty good.

When I was a kid my Grandma used to spread peanut butter on slices of baloney (balogna?) and roll it up. She called'em "P.B. Rolls." Every once in a while I still make one of those for myself and if my wife catches me she gets totally grossed out.
