"bacon bra" news and stories

Maybe you've noticed it too -- the absurd fascination with everything (and anything!) bacon. Over the past few months, I've seen the most ridiculous items (food and non-food) constructed with bacon, and honestly, I don't really know what to make of it. I obviously forward all of the links to my boyfriend, who is known for responding to all questions posed to him with a simple: bacon. (How was your day, honey? Bacon.) But on the other hand, I feel kind of nauseated by the idea of bacon underwear. Here's a round-up of some of the most outrageous, judge for yourself.

Bacon Tiara from Serious Eats

Bacon Cinnamon Rolls, also from Serious Eats

Meat Gadgets from Gizmodo (questionable whether there's bacon in there, but strange all the same...)

French Toast and Bacon Sandwich from Baking Bites (actually, yum)

Bacon Obama logo from us! (that would be Slashfood)

Bacon Ice Cream from Jumbo Empanadas

The infamous Bacon Bra from Slashfood

Maple Bacon Lollipops from lollyphile

Is there anything that people won't do with bacon? We've had bacon cups, meat cabins and ships, bacon mats and candy bacon. However, until today, I'd never seen anyone wear bacon. This may just become the next thing in undergarments. It's wire-free, made of all-natural materials and could double as a snack in a pinch.

There's a larger version of the image after the jump, for those of you who want a closer look at this hand-crafted bacon bra.

Thanks Eric!
