Bacon Freak Blog

Not to be outdone by the late blooming “wannabes” who have just recently jumped onto the “Bacon Freak Band Wagon,” The Original “Bacon Freaks” just released the much ballyhooed and long awaited “Bacon Cookbook,” and the response and buzz amongst fellow “Baconistas” has been nothing less than spectacular.

Baconopolis …  Baconopolis, by any other name would you … could you possibly smell and taste so seductively sweet, salty, sizzlingly savory and sensually sensational! I for one, think NOT!

Baconopolis (Round Two) “This time it’s Porkual!” … took place on Friday night, February 26th from 6:00 -8:00 PM at the ever so awesome Palace Ballroom in the wondrously Washingtonian city of Seattle.

I really hope that this event spurs more people to celebrate with bacon.

I, for one, did just that in my (first) wedding.  I’m not kidding, folks.  We actually spoke of bacon in our vows.  Oh sure, we sullied bacon’s good name by splitting up 4 years later, but that’s neither here nor there.  The point is, bacon is just that awesome.  (PS – I go the bacon in the divorce.  Squeee!)
