Hey there Bacon Freaks,

I’ve got to let you in on some news that might take you just a little by surprised, though probably a lot of you out there already have personally experienced this happening with some of your friends, family members or associates.

It’s a fact. Heck it’s more than a fact, it’s a verifiable TREND! More and more Jews are eating bacon these days and absolutely LOVING it. Some have been eating it for years in secret, but many Jewish Believers are now officially and openly coming out of the “pig pen” and admitting to the world that they love to eat our meat!

www.BaconTies.com is cooking up a sizzling necktie featuring the design of America’s favorite food – bacon.

I don’t swirl and sniff. I don’t swirl and sniff and eyeball either. I drink. I drink wine because I like it, not because I like chemistry.

I hear that each wine has a specific occasion that it should be invited to. Chardonnay for light summer dinners, viognier is meant to impress company, zinfandel is for your spicy curried concoction. Merlot, well merlot has become the odd duck in the wine world. It’s gotten a bad rap since Sideways, that oh so famous film totally obsessed with the juice. Ever since we think we’ll be sneered at or judged when we pull it out of the cabinet; we usually steer clear of it just to keep up with the Joneses. Do not be so easily peer pressured.
