B IS FOR BACON

Depending on where you stand, bacon is either shorthand for everything that’s wrong with food online or a smoky uniter, the gateway meat for vegetarians and the one ingredient that makes everything else better. In a recent article for Details, Eater co-founder Ben Leventhal summed it up by saying, “Good old bacon—so Web 2.0.” Exactly. Because despite repeated attempts by some members of the food media to freeze bacon’s Blob-like progress across the Internet, the stuff refuses to go away. As much as we love it, we can’t help adding our voice to the bored-of-bacon choir. If you’re looking for a new fixation beyond the ubiquitous bacon cupcake, why not try, oh, I don’t know… Duck-Fat Doughnuts?
