Does Bacon Grow On Trees?

by porktastic on March 29, 2010

I have found a new Bacontastic discovery that needs to be added to the Porktastic repertoire.  Introducing…

Bacon

Ta-Da

Okay just kidding, it’s not just bacon… bacon and chocolate…. Wait don’t leave yet! It’s not the normal bacon and chocolate, it’s Bacon Bark.

Is it bark, bacon, or chocolate?

Sounds like something straight from Willy Wonka and kind of makes me want to lick the nearest tree.

It seems to me that there are endless things you can do with this strangely delicious food.  So, while I’m outside testing all the trees for bacon goodness, here are a few things…

1)      Eat it with eggs for breakfast (c’mon there is bacon in it so it’s clearly a breakfast food)

2)      Eat it on top of ice cream (chocolate= dessert food)

3)      Add some Bacon Bark to eggs on your ice cream… okay stop making that face, I’ll stop now!

4)      Buy 100 pounds and begin the to eat to your hearts content

I’m going to buy my own 100 pounds and begin eating!  That is once I finish getting all the splinters out of my tongue…

FREE Ham?!?

by porktastic on March 25, 2010

Yes that’s right free ham and you thought there was no such thing as a free meal!  To all of our Porktastic fans out there whose mouth starts to salivate at the thought of eating tasty morsels of pork this is your opportunity.  The Ohio Pork Producers Council has challenged Stretching a Buck to make as many meals as possible with a single ham.   She has conquered the challenge and has created four delicious meals!   To top it all off they are now giving away five hams for FREE!   But you have to hurry, because you only have until 10 pm TONIGHT!! Now go and win that trophy of pork pride!

Pork Chops and Bacon, My Two Favorite Animals

March 12, 2010

Today we would like to take a few moments to salute television’s biggest fan of bacon and everything else pork, Homer J. Simpson. Ok, so he doesn’t know that pork comes from pigs, but he sure has eaten a lot of it and is quite possibly responsible for keeping all of Springfield’s invisible hog farmers [...]

Piglympics

March 8, 2010

You can stop flipping from channel to channel to looking for some obscure Olympic sport. The games are over. Gone for another two years. Like you, we’re looking for something new to entertain us and keep that competitive spirit alive – at least until March Madness starts. In typical Porktastic fashion, we looked to our [...]
