Bacon and eggs

I recently received the lovely gift of bacon and egg bandages, which are even cuter than the plain old bacon bandages we posted about previously. (Plus, they came with a little plastic pig in the tin). As Atkins Babe has noted, these bandages lack airholes and so will potentially turn your wound into something gross, but they’re still darned cute!

Now, where are all the recipe posts you people have been promising? There’s no meat in our meatblog!

Mr. Bacon versus Monsieur Tofu

From the mad geniuses at Archie McPhee:

Mr. Bacon and Monsieur Tofu are fired up and ready to rumble, but only one can remain at the top of the food chain! Mr. Bacon stands 5-5/8″ tall and fights for everything salty, greasy and meaty. Monsieur Tofu is 3-3/8″ tall and represents all things made of coagulated soy milk. The winner gets eaten for dinner! Each vinyl figure has bendable arms and legs.

Samer sent us this little gem. I don’t even know what to say about it.

I think Samer needs to join the meatblogging team.

Bacon Placemats

Upon seeing this Instructable, I jumped up and down with pure glee! I mean wow, how many uses could there be for an all bacon placemat?  You probably wouldn’t want to use it as an actual placemat — I can’t see how that would save your table from anything, and you’d have a greasy mess no matter how well you managed to pat the thing dry with paper towels.

I imagine it would make a lovely presentation for a platter of scrambled eggs.  You walk into a brunch and there is a whole mess of eggs atop a gorgeously brown crispy bacon placemat!  That would be egg-cellent.

Mickey-Shaped Meat

Samer sent me this gem: Cabel Sasser has a new post up about snacks. Scroll down to the Mickey Burger. (No, it’s not made of mice – but that does remind me to tell you to stay tuned for future rodent-based posts).

I wanted to read more about the Mickey Burgers, but to be honest I got distracted by Batter Blaster and after that nothing else shone nearly as brightly.

If you’re like me and you don’t actually eat bacon, that doesn’t mean you can’t still get your meat on courtesy of our good friends at Archie McPhee.

Just hop on over to the Bacon/Meat Category in their online catalog and stock up on bacon-related products for the whole family. From Bacon Strip Bandages to swanky Meat Shower Curtains, they’ve got you covered. Sadly, Uncle Oinker’s Gummy Bacon contains real strawberry flavoring, which I am most allergic to.
