The Bacon Pig

Alex

Vegetarians, avert your eyes: in our continuing series of thing sculpted out of meat (see the Meat House, Meat Ship), here's the Bacon Pig by Carl Huber of the WAREHOUSE. He said that it was "so dangerously good." I'll take his words for it:

People have been building all sorts of crazy stuff out of the wonder that is bacon, from the lowly bacon-wrapped scallops to the mighty meat house. But has anyone tried to restore a Frankenstein's Monster-like dignity to the pig from which the bacon hails? Probably not, because most people aren't this crazy.

It's made from bacon, ground pork, and hot dog: Link - Thanks Carl!

Update 2/4/08: Neatorama reader Jonathan Overturf sent us another pic of a pig made out of meat: http://www.reconcornelius.com/2007/12/did-you-know-that-some-pigs-are-made-of.html - Thanks Jonathan!

Ever been to one of those parties with the huge roasted pigs. It's so sad to see in intact and roasted but it's amazingly delicious. This sculpted pig is slightly mutated...but I'd still eat it with some crackers and cheese...yum!

You know, due to kidney problems I've been told by doctors that I really had to avoid animal protein. In other words, I had to become a vegetarian. This is something I've been struggling with as I've always been a carnivore at heart.

....but, after seeing that picture, I don't think I'll be having anymore cravings.

Most of the pictures look about the same to me as if someone removed books or cameras from people's hands. But maybe that isn't what was intended, as people think very differently of a book and a smart phone. A family reading together would also be disconnected, but people would probably pick more positive descriptions for such an image.

Agreed. Remove any other external stimuli from the photo and you have a similar image. My daughter has her nose buried in her Kindle, would we think twice if it was an actual book?

Good points, PlasmaGryphon and ursusblue. You too, THAT Alan. They were actually looking at porn but I was embarrassed to admit it, so I made up that story about the artsy stuff.

As further evidence in favor of the going theory that they could be looking at anything, today's article on Neatorama entitled: "Cool Vintage Photos of People Reading".

Remove the books and such and it's exactly the same as this article's images, only from a different age when our tech didn't exist. You can clearly see that the behavior of gathering in groups and ignoring each other to read stuff is exactly the same as it was back then.

People complain about these things without realizing that the same things have happened before with less tech and no serious detriment to the human race then, either.
