I’m as big a fan of bacon as anyone, but it’s getting to the point where you just don’t know where bacon is going to pop up next.<\/p>\n

This column “You won’t believe this column is not bacon<\/a>,” takes a fun look at all the places the tasty, salty treat is showing up these days.<\/p>\n

Inspired by news that a bacon-flavoured vodka is hitting store shelves, it recounts the many new food-based and non-edible ways that the striped wonder is being used.<\/p>\n

I’ve personally only had one bacon-flavoured treat that I didn’t love, bacon jellybeans, but I’m not ruling out all bacon-inspired sweets.<\/p>\n

I may even try some of the dessert recipes recommended by Time Magazine<\/a> if I get the opportunity.<\/p>\n

But to be honest, I’m feeling a little bit like a purist these days. Bacon is so good straight out of the oven that maybe trying to improve it is futile.<\/p>\n
