Behold: Bacon placemats

When I clicked on this Instructable for bacon placemats, I imagined the poster, Trebuchet03, singing an alternate version of Sammy Davis Jr.'s The Candy Man while creating this edible tabletop accessory. "Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with cracklin'? The meaty man can cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good. Forget those nasty transfats; you can even eat the placemats."

Enough of my lame attempts at songwriting. As you've probably figured out by now, these are no mere scratch-and-sniff bacon placemats. They're actually made out of 100 percent porcine goodness. The bacon is woven together in a six-by-six lattice and baked for about 20 minutes. The poster was sure to include "hunger for bacon" on the list of ingredients. The folks over at Instructables seem to have a bit of a thing for bacon. A while back someone posted on how to make bacon soap. [via Serious Eats]

I'm glad people like it :) I had one of those "So crazy, it just might work" moments. Followed a little later by "I can't believe he ate the whole thing" situations o.0 I haven't had a bit of bacon in awhile now - perhaps post place mat trauma?
