bacon

The action on the field may not be the only heart-stopping thing fans of the West Michigan Whitecaps see this season.

If there is one thing the internet has taught us it's that people really love bacon. A coffee house in Cheltenham, England is betting that there are folks out there who love the cured meat so much that they would be willing to shell out 150 pounds ($237) for what they are calling the Bacon Bling sandwich.

Love the smell of bacon, beer, and other "manly" meats, drinks and things of this world? Would you like to smell like this stuff all the time? Well, you don't have to bathe in a tub full of beer to smell like the frothy stuff, just order some beer-scented ManHands soap.

Bacon is a meat of the gods — a perfectly greasy man-snack that's acceptable in any and all situations. For starters, there's bacon shaving cream, bacon maple ale and a meaty, bacon coffin. You name it, we're on board. Of course, the best way to enjoy the salty strips is by chowin' down on the stuff...

Just when you thought Jake the Dog singing about making bacon pancakes couldn't get any better, it does. Thanks, internet.

We really don’t like to be the bearers of bad news. It makes us feel all sad and weird, like ‘Gangnam Style’ in an elevator. But this time, we feel that it’s necessary to relay said bad news, if only for your health: there is going to be a global shortage of bacon next year.

So far we've learned that the worst US drought in 50 years will cause meat prices to rise and has even forced some ranchers to feed candy to their cattle. But now comes truly disturbing news from the UK's National Pig Association (who knew there was such a thing?): a worldwide bacon and sausage shortage may also be in the future.

Mmmm...bacon. Delicious, mouth-watering bacon. Okay, I know it's pretty popular. It seems like it's on everything these days, right? I like it okay, but its not at the top of my list of must-haves, especially since the doctor told me I need to watch my cholesterol. But for a 9 yr old Pennsylvania boy, a beef over bacon was what sent his grandmother to jail.

Though we wouldn't expect someone to eat an entire lasagna in one sitting, even one serving of this monster-of-a-dish from Epic Meal Time would still contain over 7,000 calories per-person when divided into 10 servings. The literally epic lasagna was created by the men of Epic Meal Time, a website devoted to concocting and eating bizarre foods.
