That's okay, JWBear. I too have tasted the wonder that is honey walnut shrimp, and understand why you might equate it with bacon.

But serving it WITH bacon.... now that has some serious potential! Meat candy + Sea candy = I don't know what it equals, but it'd be awesome.

Meat candy + Sea candy = Surf-N-Turf-Candy

[Disneyphile]

I am in food heaven, and think I have found my new favorite food -

Grilled bacon-wrapped jalapenos.

Just washed the whole fresh jalapenos (didn't remove the seeds or anything), and then wrapped them up in a strip of bacon (spiraled around to cover the whole pepper), put them on the George Foreman grill..... and a few minutes later, I had a religious experience. It's a brilliant concoction of flavor and heat.... just perfect.

I want more. I could seriously eat these things constantly.

And, sadly, I only made two of 'em, and the rest of the bacon was already cooked. :(

But, OMG.... for those of you who love bacon and spicy.... ya gotta try this!

[wolfy999]

Sounds like something that the Woflpack would love!

[blueerica]

I bought my first package of turkey bacon. I am going to give it a try.

I find that regular bacon from the grocery store sucks, and I can't always make it to the local butcher... so I'm rebelling.

Some turkey bacon sucks some is delish. It's better if it's a bit fatty so it crisps up nicely. (I use Applegate (or is it Applewood?) Farms)

Sounds yummy! I've never tried making carbonara at home.

[Morrigoon]

The carbonara recipe in the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook is pretty decent. They have you add the egg up front, which isn't technically proper, but works well enough. The trick is to keep the heat down so you don't "break" the egg.

Iffen you don't break the egg, how do you get it out of the shell? :p

And I have a problem with tossing the pasta with a raw egg. Is that totally necessary?
The idea is you need the pasta hot enough to cook the egg when tossing. If you prefer, blend the egg with the cream, add it to the pasta and toss over a low heat for a minute or two until cooked. Not quite the same, but yummy nevertheless.

Oh and do you use smoked bacon or pancetta?
Just regular Canadian Aussie Bacon.

Somewhere back in this thread, we discussed how LoT was mentioned on a board devoted to bacon. Both BlueErica and I received this email on Friday:

My book, Bacon: A Love Story, comes out in less than 11 weeks. I'm pretty
excited! The content you both gave me is featured in a couple places in the
book, and I'm glad you're a part of it.

To begin the countdown to the book launch, I'm launching a new social
network where members from all corners of the Bacon Nation can come
together.

http://baconnation.ning.com

You can read more about my vision for the community in the blog entry
currently on my homepage:

http://www.baconunwrapped.com

I hope you'll consider participating in the Bacon Nation in addition to your
own fabulous community. I'm anticipating a high level of attention for my
book based on the feedback I've received so far, and I want to make this as
an opportunity and adventure for all of us whose lives revolve around bacon.
It would be fun to have you involved!

I bet Alphabassettgrrl is going to say that "reading before posting" is against the LoT rules.



....and the BLT drinks tonight at the Cocktail Party were beyond Awesome. They were fantastic. The mix of regular and low sodium worked (after a little tweaking with tabasco & Lea & Perrins.)

Bacone (http://thisiswhyyourefat.com/post/100480546/the-bacone-a-bacon-cone-filled-with-scrambled)

[Morrigoon]

Dude... seriously, dude...


I think I want.

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I want a dude too Goonie.

And that Bacone looks tasty!

[blueerica]

I think I just got heartburn in my eyes.

[Betty]

Hmmm... must work on how to make the bacone at home.

[Morrigoon]

LOL... Woot is selling bacon salt!

[wolfy999]

But dang....$5.00 shipping?!

[Morrigoon]

Yeah, I can't see myself ordering enough of them to make the $5 shipping break down into something that makes sense

What does bacon lube taste like? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENNSvDNLFqA)

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I would be willing to try it.

[Kevy Baby]

I would be willing to try it.Should we just call you Mikey?

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I would prefer to be legally recognized as Mr. Szczerbiak.

Back off the pork and let's talk bacon.

Now, we all know the bacon watch, a.k.a. "Time for Bacon". A very affordable novelty item that. But, I swear that woman who writes the "On and Off the Avenue" shopping column for The New Yorker mentioned a very upscale Swiss version. It's not on the market yet (or ever?) but would be thousands of dollars, if not tens of thousands. Like Time for Bacon, the hands are bacon strips - jeweled or gold, in this case.

The article is in this week's issue. I'm looking at the article right now and I can't find the bacon watch part. It's driving me crazy, damn it.

[bewitched]

I thought of you all when I was at my favorite local meat market/family run little grocery store, mostly because they carry these things:

Bacon bandaids (http://www.mcphee.com/items/11476.html)

Bacon mints (http://www.mcphee.com/items/11706.html)

Bacon gumballs (http://www.mcphee.com/items/11871.html)

Bacon gummy candy (which Olivia and I agreed looked totally disgusting) (http://www.mcphee.com/items/11605.html)

Bacon Flavored Toothpicks (http://www.mcphee.com/items/11723.html)

plus lots of other meat related products.

Yep. They like bacon at this place...maybe even more than bacon loving LoTers do. :D

I don't know why you all can't stand Bacon Salt, but I love the stuff! We only have two jars of the original, and I put it on everything. It's especially good mixed with salsa or sour cream for dipping veggies. :)

[Chernabog]

I'm currently having an avocado egg salad bacon wrap :) nummy.

[blueerica]

I had a turkey club melt... with bacon. Mmmm. I ate a salad instead of fries to counter the ooey-gooey goodness.

Someone just microwaved bacon in the kitchenette across from my office. The smell is driving me crazy. I hate them... :mad:

No need to ration, just buy it at baconsalt.com

I just checked, they ship internationally.

So I was just using BING to find the Lounge of Tomorrow and it did not come up. So I decided to use another word to help narrow down the results. I find it funny that I used bacon, before words like swank or Disney.

In case you were wondering, I ended up using google to find it. lol

in retrospect, I should have just typed LoungeofTomorrow.com. Oh well.

The Long Beach store won't be open until October, but I have officially stopped the majority of my pet sitting and am training part time in the Downtown LA store for 2 weeks. THEN, it looks like I will be working full time there while hiring 2 assistant managers, training them, training myself, getting product ordered, received and stocked and generally blowing all of the circuits in my brain.
