Bacon Flavored Croutons
J&D's is at it again, this time with something slightly less controversial than Bacon Lube. Personally, Bacon Croutons are an unnecessary shortcut in the same class as Bacon Bits. If you really want bacon flavor in a salad, you just can't substitute the real thing.

Hoffy Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs Now Available
Move over street vendors, Hoffy is moving into your territory. There's something special about a danger dog, and it's a flavor that Hoffy is not going to be able to capture: digestive risk, street grime, and drunken munchies.

Bacon Pancakes
Each month I receive a Tasting Box from Foodzie, filled with 6 or 7 artisan items I wouldn't otherwise buy. This month's Tasting Box included Grade B Maple Syrup from Ben's Sugar Shack. Of course, only one thing comes to mind when I think of syrup...pancakes! Now, I'm not really a big breakfast person, but every now and then I'll have a craving for pancakes that I cannot satiate any other way. In this case, I blame my friend Carrie, who made pancakes over the weekend to try out her Tasting Box Syrup, and that planted the seed in my head. That seed must have sprouted this evening, because as I was leaving work I had breakfast for dinner on my mind.
Read More…Review Lardon Truck
When the food truck trend first emerged, I had a hard stance on it: there's no way I'd follow a "restaurant" on Twitter just so I could find where it was parked if I had a craving for it. Ridiculous. My stance has loosened a bit lately thanks to The Truck Stop at Beverly and La Brea, simply because it's on my way home from work and I know that there will be trucks there. Since I don't have a taste for any trucks in particular it works out well. My dinner will have variety, I get to try something new, and I don't have to deal with Twitter or worse, Facebook.

Two posts in two days, courtesy of Lifehacker. Can you tell the enormous amount of guilt I feel for not having a better post? Long story short, the acid from the beer will fend off pests and the sugars will nourish your plants.
Read More…Polish Wood Furniture with Stale Beer
Just last weekend, I mentioned that we should cook something with bacon and/or beer so that I'd have something to post for the website. Thirty Eight games of Starcraft II later, it was never done, and therefore, I'm going on almost two months without posting a recipe. I'm confident this isn't going to be the weekend for it either, since we're going to Palm Springs. So, in the mean time, I leave you with a Lifehacker tip that you can use old, stale, flat beer to polish your wood surfaces. It's probably crazy to think that you might have leftover beer for such an occasion, but file this one away somewhere in the recesses of your brain just in case.
Read More…Newcastle Shadow Billboard
My friend Stephenie at A Bear in the Kitchen alerted me to an article on the Huffington Post about a Newcastle billboard presently on display in the San Diego area. Basically, a team of artists took about 3000 Newcastle bottle caps and placed them on a billboard. By day, it looks like 3000 bottle caps on a billboard. By night, it looks like a man reaching for a Newcastle. In the age of over saturation of advertising, I applaud Newcastle for stepping outside the box and making us take notice. Plus, I like Newcastle. A lot.
