Another story about Bacon where it says:
"So why are so many people suddenly so into bacon? James thinks it's
about people taking guilty pleasure in eating something that's
nutritionally taboo, and then extracting even more bliss by
exponentially increasingly the decadence factor. A hot dog is bad for
you. A hot dog wrapped in bacon and sandwiched between two oblong maple
doughnuts is hard-core food porn.
"If it's bad to start with, it's like, how can we make it slightly
badder to get more attention," James says."

And there's also a new book too
Heather Lauer started the Bacon Unwrapped blog four years ago on a lark,
but she drew a following, and now her book, Bacon: A Love Story,
published by William Morrow, comes out in May. On Amazon you can buy the
book with a jar of baconnaise.
And there's a recipe for *Candied bacon martinis which calls for *
4 slices smoked bacon; 3 Tbsps. light-brown sugar;12 ounces premium
vodka; 8 ounces Applejack brandy
4 ounces amaretto liqueur; 4 ounces maple syrup, preferably grade B; 8
thin slices tart apple, such as Granny Smith
