Another comic from xkcd:
Those of you who know Shelby will not be surprised to learn that her favorite present from Christmas 2007 was a year-long subscription to the Bacon of the Month Club. (Accompanied by a copy of the The Bacon Cookbook.)
Yes, it's totally frivolous and not-good-for-you (although The Bacon Cookbook gamely does what it can by telling you that a two- or three-slice serving of bacon is 'almost a health food' compared to a hot dog, hamburger, or glazed donut), but so far it's brought some seriously goooooooooood bacon to our door. The stuff that you can buy at the grocery store has nothing on the flavor of specialty gourmet bacon. The head-and-shoulders favorite so far has been Burgers' Smokehouse Pepper Coated Country Bacon. Burgers' has a website and an Amazon storefront (gourmet bacon and 3% back with our Amazon credit card!)
Now I know what I can get Shelby for her birthday ...
