Fat Skunk Put on Diet

Posted by Miss Cellania in Animal on September 30, 2009 at 1:07 pm

A skunk named Mr. Bumble was turned over to the RSPCA when his owners could no longer handle him. The skunk, who loves bacon sandwiches, weighed in at 14 pounds! Mr. Bumble is now at Tropiquaria Animal Park in Watchet, England and is on a weight-loss regimen.

Park owner Chris Noisier told the BBC: “We’re now working on dieting him down to what he should be and clearly bacon butties are not a normal part of a skunk’s diet in the wild.

“We’re putting him on the vegetarian option at the moment. It’s very much like a human weight watching issue.

“He is getting to meet lots of new people so there’s lots going on in his life and I suspect it’s making up for the lack of his old favourite food.”

Bacon Shoes

Posted by Alex in Fashion, Pictures on September 29, 2009 at 6:38 pm

Allee Willis is a fantastic and accomplished songwriter by day (she wrote the Friends theme song I’ll Be There For You, for example) and a kitsch collector by night.

Thanks to the Interweb, we can now marvel at her extensive collection of kitsch. As a bacon afficionado, it’s my sworn duty to bring you these Bacon Shoes:

Nothin’ tastier in the morning then to slip on a nice pair of bacon shoes and go about your day. As someone who loves the meaty stuff, this is the perfect way to avoid all that grease and and keep your feet looking crisp and scrumptious all day. I have bacon bandages, bacon scarves, designer bacon everything, but the printing is so cheap on most of it it just looks like pink and red wavy stripes. But on these Keds it actually looks like the real thing.

    World Record Bacon Sandwich

    Posted by Miss Cellania in Food & Drinks, World Records on August 10, 2009 at 10:08 pm


    A bacon sandwich is good anytime, but August s the best time for BLTs, when local tomatoes are at their peak. At the fifth annual Tomato Fest in St. Louis, Tom Coghill and 90 volunteers put together a BLT that stretched 179 feet, two inches, breaking the world record for the biggest bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. They used 500 pounds of bacon, 1,280 pounds of tomatoes, and 100 heads of lettuce. Link -via Digg

    Swine Flu: Bacon's Revenge

    Swine Flu: Bacon’s Revenge – $9.95

    Swine flu is on everybody’s mind, so why not on their T-shirts as well? Neatorama illustrator Chris Murphy cooked up this hammy design that will surely get your friends and co-workers chuckling (though whether they’re chuckling because the shirt is funny or they’re nervous about swine flu is another matter).

    And for those who’re sick and tired of hearing of the swine flu pandemic, how about a little pundemic? The cleverest pun in the comment (yes, I’m looking at you, Kalel) will win this T-shirt. Moral outrage is welcome (as long as it’s funny).

    Not Into March Madness? How About Meat Madness?

    Posted by Stacy in Food & Drinks on March 23, 2009 at 7:37 pm

    This is the chance for all of you who are sick of the whole bacon craze – I know you’re out there – to make sure it’s defeated once and for all.

    So Good blog has constructed a Meat Bracket pitting the four major conferences – Seafood, “Red” Meat (his quotes), Poultry and Pork. So far steak(1) has ousted roast beef(8), bacon(1, of course) massacred pork chops(8) and pulled pork(4) slaughtered ham(5). Oh, and buffalo(5) just barely squeaked by veal(4) in a minor upset.

    You can get it on today’s round – tuna vs. shrimp and lobster vs. clams – if you hurry.

    Bacon Mayonnaise?

    Posted by Stacy in Food & Drinks on February 23, 2009 at 7:16 pm


    …Bayo, perhaps? Whatever it’s called, Ryan Farr from Best by Farr (this is his picture, by the way) has whipped up a batch of either the most wonderful or most evil culinary creation ever. He cooked up some bacon fat and then rendered until all of the fat was clarified. Then he strained and separated the fat and used it to make mayonnaise – bacon-flavored mayonnaise. What do you think?

    Record Set in South Pole Expedition

    Posted by Miss Cellania in Travel & Places, World Records on January 9, 2009 at 10:47 am

    The Canadian team of Ray Zahab, Kevin Vallely and Richard Weber have completed a 680 mile journey across Antarctica to the South Pole on foot in just under 34 days. This beats the previous Antarctic speed record by five days! They traveled on foot, skis, and snowshoes while pulling a sled with their equipment.

    They endured altitude sickness, vertigo and massive, painful blisters.

    They kept themselves fuelled with a 7,000-calorie-a-day diet of deep-fried bacon, cheese and huge chunks of butter.

    “I’m dying for some pizza,” said Mr Zahab, who added he was too excited to sleep.

    Bacon Explosion: The Mother of All Sausages

    Posted by Alex in Food & Drinks on December 25, 2008 at 2:30 pm

    Remember the bacon cheese roll we featured on Neatorama recently? Well, I’ve found its brethren: the mother of all BBQ sausage, behold the Bacon Explosion. From the Burnt Finger BBQ Team:

    The other day the guys from BaconToday.com contacted me in search for some barbecue bacon recipes. Of course I have plenty of great uses for bacon in a barbecue pit, but the longer I thought about it, the more I wanted to step it up a notch and clog a few arteries for those guys. Behold, BACON EXPLOSION!!! Here’s what you’ll need…

    2 pounds thick cut bacon
    2 pounds Italian sausage
    1 jar of your favorite barbeque sauce
    1 jar of your favorite barbeque rub

    To kick off the construction of this pork medley you’ll need to create a 5×5 bacon weave. If the strips you’re using aren’t as wide as the ones pictured, then you may need to use a few extra slices to fill out the pattern. Just make sure your weave is tight and that you end up with a nice square shape to work with.

    Homemade Bacon Bath Salts

    Posted by Miss Cellania in Arts & Crafts on December 15, 2008 at 9:10 am

    Bath salts are a popular Christmas gift for the person who has everything. Now you can make them yourself with the classic scent of bacon!

    Step 1
    Heat up 4 strips of salt pork in a microwave. You could also use bacon, but the salt pork has more fat, giving you more grease for your mixture.

    Step 2
    Pour 2 cups epsom salt in bowl, then 1 cup borax.

    Step 3
    Drain fat away from meat and mix with a few drops of liquid smoke. The liquid smoke helps make the scent, it won’t smell right without it.

    Step 4
    Mix the grease/smoke mixture into the salt mixture. Mix thoroughly by hand, or else it will not blend all the way. If there seems to be too much grease, add more borax and salt. If it is too dry, heat up more salt pork and repeat steps 1-4.

    Step 5
    Enjoy bacon scented baths by adding your salt whenever you take a soak. To store, just put it in a bottle and save it for later.
