The Bacon Tomb: One Year Later

By Alex in Food & Drink on Aug 10, 2007 at 10:57 pm

What is that? It’s a result of a year-long experiment at the WAREHOUSE: a slice of uncooked bacon entombed in a lexan box. (Maybe it’ll last longer if it were encased in glass!)

I can’t believe Carl kept it a whole year, that we’ve posted about it a year ago, and that we’re posting it now! LinkThanks Carl!

    I’m afraid to ask how bad it smells.

    Yeah! Let’s ask Carl to exhume the piece from its Lexan tomb and take a whiff.

    Hah, actually, Alex, the folks on theWAREHOUSE forums had the same request. Here’s what I told them:

    “Actually I think we did inadvertently open it after I had pressed it, having forgotten about it under several layers in the garbage can! Aubrey walked by the kitchen one evening commenting “eugh, I think something’s rotten in there” – You know that stank when you walk by restaurant dumpsters (as opposed to, say, perfume and newspaper dumpsters) on a hot day after a rainstorm? It was kind of like that.

    eventually the egg tomb will rupture due to the gases from the salmonella
