In a last-ditch effort at reviving the former granditude (grandness + attitude = granditude) of this blog, i’ve decided to move the blog to Tumblr. Hopefully the easy posting etc will mean shorter, but more frequent updates.
For now the blog will be updated here:
http://bacontarian.tumblr.com/
If the experiment turns out to be a success, i’ll change that to http://bacontarian.com/
Also the rss feed will move to http://feeds.feedburner.com/bacontarian
New posts will also end up on twitter @bacontarian.com
This site will stay up for the foreseeable future.

From Doug Winter comes a pointer to what looks like one of the most amazing bacon recipes to ever grace the dessert section of this website. And how bacontarian is this quote?
This whole thing started the other night when my husband and I were having a conversation about what foods could and could not be made better with the addition of bacon.
Sure, that was a good salad, but it would have been so much better with bacon. That was a delicious baked potato.. I wish it had some bacon on it. You know what was missing from breakfast this morning?- bacon. I think we’ve come up with so many foods which bacon can enhance, that we really were wondering what foods it wouldn’t
That’s a conversation i’ve had so many times i can hardly remember, but never with this particular outcome.
Ooh you tasty little things…: Experiments in deliciousness: Bacon chocolate chip cookies with maple cinnamon glaze.

From sharkbomb comes this story, and isn’t it just an awesome idea. Not as nauseatingly sweet as the original, but rather with a resplendent taste of our favourite meat:

In the past months, while the site has been largely in stasis (“master bacon” has been on paternity leave, teaching his young son to eat more pork), our loyal visitors have been actively submitting recipes and stories.
So, i’ve taken it upon myself to revitalize bacontarian, by posting some of the backlog of posts from the queue. Probably one a day or so.
I’ll start with a very time-sensitive submission from Diane at Hormel Foods:
The Big Game [editors note: The superbowl for our non-US audience] is this weekend! Experts are predicting more than 100 million viewers this Sunday, and they’ll all be looking for tasty game day treats.
To prepare fans for a perfect game day party, Hormel Foods is offering a play-by-play to create three SUPER easy, delicious BACON dishes. In an easy-to-follow “how-to” video available on www.hormelrecipes.com, the experts at Hormel Foods’ test kitchens guide readers as they prepare Onion Bacon Dip, Bacon Cheese Dogs and Monterey Ranch Ham Sandwiches. All the recipes feature bacon, which, makes everything that much better!

Sincerely,
Diane Lewis
Thanks Diane.

Forget web 2.0, forget medical research, forget space exploration, finally, out of Leeds University, comes research that really matters.
Experts at Leeds University discovered the secret to the ideal sandwich lay in how crispy and crunchy rashers were.

sharkbomb commented on a recent posting with a link to this, dare i say, slightly bizarre recipe for Bacon Ice Cream.
I haven’t tried this, but having previously requested bacon dessert recipes I’m loving this, and think ti would go wonderfully with some of these bacon cookie ’s
A big thanks to sharkbomb for a seasonally appropriate recipe!

Wow! I must try me some of this…..
Nosheteria: Snacking Thy Name is Decadence
But this is Nosheteria, not some ascetic kitchen, and I’ve been out of college for quite some time, so leave it to me to bring popcorn from the healthy to the sublime. And what is the fastest way to do that? By adding bacon of course…everything’s better with bacon.
