Bacon lipbalm? wuah O_O?

You are not mistaken, what you are seeing is really a bacon cupcake.      

  Bacon fever is taking over the world. Not only is it a staple food in many places, it has infected every restraunt, every course, every dish!!!! 

Bacon is fatty, salty, savory, and irresistabe. Having it as an ingredient in so many foods really is not helping the obesity porblems in this country.

I didnt even notice it before, but looking at this picture, i realized bacon really is in everything now. Theres bacon earings, bacon lip balm, even bacon lotion, ewww!!!!
People making these things are not losing money either so that means theres actually people buying. Some people could just be buyiing it for funny, but i still find it disturbing. Food should be eaten, not worn as earings or smeard of your skin.


Its true, im not lying

I think Lady Gaga tends to disagree. She wears meat as clothing. However, I tend to agree with Jasmine in this case. Americans seem to make every possible food combination...sorry - unhealthy food combination. It has been a danger and is a danger to our population, especially considering the rate at which obesity is increasing. Let's look from another point of view though. This is just a fun combination of ingredients...salty and sweet. The baker is probably just joking around and seeing what people think of it and most likely does not assume that everybody will try it. If stuff like this was eaten in moderation, sure, this wouldn't be as bad as it seems. But because America has the bad reputation it does, it's unlikely that people will eat such "delicacies" in moderation.

That is definitely weird; I wouldn't want to smear bacon fat or bacon related projects on my skin. But then again, these products must be selling if someone is bothering to make them, and if someone wants to eat/have bacon incorporated into their everyday life, then good for them. It's hard to people to change; people are likely to give into temptations like bacon. Even when warned about the dangers of obesity, unhealthy food like bacon will still be eaten because most people value the instant gratification of eating bacon over the long-term health complications.

I am fond of a certain chocolate bar that comes with bacon, hitting that salty + sweet thing just right. Yummy!

Hi Sam.
