Least. Healthy. Snack. Ever.

I found this while trying to find an image to illustrate "Bacon Porn":


"Tastes great, just needs more salt!"

In culinary school, one item that had almost universal popularity was honey-bacon. Ridiculously easy to make: brush raw bacon with honey, lay on a drying rack set in a sheet-pan, place in a cold oven then bake at around 400 until done. Flat, crispy, sweet & salty. I'm not a big fan of honey-flavor, and all the intense smokey fat really ratchet up that particular note.

Now the snack I had today, oy. Over all, I think I hit a new low in unhealthiness, but for not horrible reasons. I felt good, enjoyed working last night, have some new ideas, B worked from home and I had extra time to admire her belly, Rufus the Wonder Cat was super snuggly, and I had a really good yoga basics class with my favorite teacher focusing on my favorite yoga practice (back bending). Also maybe a lack of sleep, only 5 hours. So I'm not weirdly punishing myself, maybe celebrating by indulging myself?

While eating the bacon, I desired something sweet, and I reached for a grape soda. What a great combination!! I should make something like a loose grape jam, and spread it on the bacon! Mmmmm! Grape bacon! I posted on facebook, and people chimed in with "No! Orange!" or the like.
