Borden Applewood Bacon Cheddar Cheese Slices:

Finally! We’ve been waiting for someone to make bacon cheese, something every good burger deserves!

Apparently, it’s available at Walmart (and we’ll confess, Walmart isn’t a place we usually consider a mecca for bacon goodness).

From baconbaconbacon:

Bacon-Flavored Cheddar Cheese

pottsjen says that it really tastes like smoked bacon and is really good.

Baconnaise: A Survey and a Love Story

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 18:44:39 -0400

Here’s a post from Spam, our Bacon Bishop, with a very touching ending. It’s worth the read.

Today, J&D’s Foods, the makers of Bacon Salt and Baconnaise, posted a customer service survey to get some opinions and feedback from their customers in order to gauge what they’ve done and where they should go from here, dangling a $100 gift card as a carrot for one lucky entrant.

Whether or not you’ve tried any of their products, you should take a moment to share your opinions. Here’s the survey.

Naturally, I was all over this like bacon on a cheeseburger. Predictably, I gave them glowing reviews on what they’d done, but there were two very exciting parts of the survey.

One one question, they asked my opinion about a number of potention bacon-flavored products (and one non-bacon item: Chorizo Salt). Additionally, they ask for additional ideas…so here’s what I gave them, off the top of my head:

Bacon Pasta or Pasta Sauce

Bacon Salad Dressing

Maple Bacon Oatmeal

Bacon Bubble/Chewing Gum

Bacon Air Fresheners

Maple Bacon Frosting or Glaze

Bacon Cheese Slices

Bacon Bread/Buns/Bagels

Bacon Toothpaste

Bacon Tortillas

Bacon Rice

Yes, I was serious. I’d try all of those items.

Now, for the even more exciting part. At the end of the survey, J&D’s says, “Please share any additional thoughts, comments, promotional ideas, product improvements, or experiences with Bacon Salt or Baconnaise.”

This is where I took a few minutes to share a story with them that I had been holding onto for a long time. Here’s what I gave them:

This is a true story.

As the tale begins, I was already a huge fan of Bacon Salt. The moment Baconnaise was finally available, I immediately placed my order and awaited the goods. When it arrived, I immediately left my office and picked up my best friend Anna, who I had a long-standing crush on—and who was also as big of a fan of mayonnaise as I was of bacon. We went to the nearest Subway shop, ordered a footlong chicken breast sub with only veggies on it, and proceeded to slather it with Baconnaise. Needless to say, we were both in condiment heaven as we found that Baconnaise was even better than either of us was hoping, and we finished off that jar in only a few days.

A few days after this experience, Anna and I fell deeply in love, and shortly thereafter, decided that we would spend the rest of our lives together. Without hesitation, I credit Baconnaise for sparking the love between this bacon lover and the mayo lover, and since our love blossomed out of a jar of Baconnaise, I can assure you that it will be a core part of our wedding banquet.

Thank you, Justin and Dave, for inventing Baconnaise and sparking the love of a lifetime.

Sincerely,
Spam, your official Bacon Bishop of Baltimore and founder of the Ministry Of Bacon

And that’s my fairy tale.

GrubGrade's review of Taco Bell's new Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 11:19:00 -0400

GrubGrade's review of Taco Bell's new Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito:

Here’s GrubGrade’s review of the promotional menu item that everyone’s been raving about lately. Although the reviewer thought there was too much going on in this burrito, he did love each of the flavors he was being assaulted with. But here’s the best news: The taste of bacon didn’t get overwhelmed by everything else, as we here at the Ministry have been fearing!

We’ll post our own review once we finally get a chance to savor this bacony behemoth.

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 14:28:03 -0400

Taco Bell’s new Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito:

Our Bishop Spam and High Priestess Anna spotted this new item during a late-night Taco Bell visit this weekend. Although neither of them has tried it personally yet, hopes for full baconosity aren’t too high, since Taco Bell historically uses bacon more as a condiment than as a featured ingredient. (It’s also a pricey menu item, especially for Taco Bell.)

Recapping the Bacon and Beer Happy Hour at Bad Decisions

Recapping the Bacon and Beer Happy Hour at Bad Decisions:

The guy quoted saying “It’s like I’ve been slimed!” after eating The Gutbuster? That’s our own Bacon Bishop, Spam. (He also enjoyed the BBQ chicken & bacon nachos, but regretted not trying the GBLT—a guacamole, bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich.)

Other highlights were the bacon-infused vodka supplied by locally-reknowned mixologist Evan of The City That Breeds, and the bacon cheddar beer cupcakes made by Bishop Spam and High Priestess Anna.

It was our best Bacon & Beer Happy Hour yet…and usual, people are already looking forward to the next one.
