GLOBAL BACON SHORTAGE!

http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/09/26/start-hoarding-now-a-global-bacon-shortage-is-coming/

The European Union reports that pig herds around the world are “declining at a significant rate.” And this could lead to a serious pork (and most crucially, bacon!) shortage — a problem that Britain’s National Pig Association chairman, Richard Longthorp, now warns is “unavoidable.”(MORE: You Can Be Buried in a Bacon Coffin)
“British supermarkets know they have to raise the price they pay Britain’s pig farmers or risk empty spaces on their shelves next year,” he says in a press release.
Oddly, this shortage isn’t coming on the heels of restaurant chains across the world adding copious amounts of bacon to nearly every dish on their menus. Rather, the issue is economic: the ever-rising prices of pig feed are making the business of pig farming a tougher one to manage.
The NPA has launched a “Save Our Bacon” campaign to convince consumers to purchase local bacon, a show of solidarity to persuade supermarket chains to stock the homegrown meat and pay farmers a higher price.

The 100% Made of Bacon Hamburger

http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/07/06/presenting-the-100-bacon-hamburger/


Patty is made of 100% ground up bacon.

Slater’s 50/50 is a trio of restaurants in Southern California that has been making a name for itself with its only-in-America blend of 50% beef and 50% bacon in its burgers. While that might be enough bacon for many people, Slater’s has now introduced The ‘Merica burger, featuring a patty made of 100% ground bacon topped with a slice of thick cut bacon, a sunny side up egg, a slab of bacon cheddar cheese, and, of course, “bacon island” dressing .

Get buried in a bacon coffin

bacon-coffin.jpg

If your last dying wish would be to eat a plate full of sizzling bacon, there’s a coffin that may be your match made in heaven.The bacon coffin retails at $2,999.99 plus shipping, but it’s a small price to pay for “those who love bacon to death.” Seattle-based J&D’s Foods (purveyors of all things bacon, including bacon salt and bacon lip balm) says its mission is “to put the ‘fun’ back in funerals.”
Alas, the coffins are not actually made from bacon, but painted to look like the mouthwatering strips. Inside the coffin are ivory crepe coffin linens, as well as a bacon memorial tube and a bacon air freshener.
As if to validate their foray into coffin design, J&D’s is quick to link to a post about 24 weird coffin designs. Would knowing that you could order a custom Star Trek, iPhone, or Pabst Blue Ribbon-themed casket make you feel better about ordering a bacon resting place?
