bacon Are you tired of those plain looking band-aids? Those slightly pink colored strips only remind me of the worst times when I was kid. When you’ve got a cut, you want to be cheered up. And what’s the most cheering thing besides a nice slab of bacon? That’s right, designers have made a band-aid in the shape of bacon strips. Just plop one of these babies on and you’ll be healing up pork style in no time.

And when you put one on, you could yell "I'm cured!"

I've seen the bacon-aids, along with band-aids that are like lime green wih pictures of sushi and sashimi.

Tell me if I have a childish sense of humour but that first post saying I�m cured made me laugh so much.
I think this idea with these plasters is a very good idea for kids, it will make them laugh when they get hurt, that will take there mind of the pain.

I saw these at an Urban Outfitters and wanted to buy them so bad! Unfortunately my wife saw me pick them up and gave me a "You've-got-to-be-kidding-me-don't-even-think-about-buying-those-if-you-value-your-life" looks. mmmmm! bacon!

Will they be, next, marketing corn remover pads or small injury bandages as bacon bits?

I am no longer ashamed to admit that I am a vegetarian who eats bacon like my life depends on it. Bacon is not meat - it is a gift from the gods.
