It’s once time to get your bacon on. Or down the hatch. Whatever that means, anyway.
Over the course of the last year or two (and probably due to the increase in the number of Zombies hungering for bacon still roaming the streets in a post-apocalyptic alternate multi-verse somewhere out in the distance), the American blue states have seen an onslaught of bacon products, including but not limited to: bacon lube, which the jury is still out on; bacon syrup for those too lazy or lacking in the skills to cook actual bacon with their pancake feast; and bacon-flavored envelopes.
Now Bacon Soda is being introduced to the masses at large and I’m predicting a victory for the disgusting-sounding soda based on its main imitation-ingredient alone.
The love-fest and talk between the two companies responsible for the merging of bacon and soda sounds a bit like an old Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup commercial—you remember the one with the lion—I put my chocolate into his peanut butter—only now we are living in much, much grosser times and the lines and our tastes have changed with the times. The following is an actual quote from the company responsible for getting the ball rolling on Bacon Soda and is in reference to the J&D Foods collaboration with Jones Soda on the life-changing project: They know soda. We know bacon. We were destined to merge our technologies for something big.
Which kind of puts the whole little thing of the elections into perspective; we have something much more important to focus on: Bacon Soda. We are wasting our times worrying about the Tea-Party weirdos out there who are stealing our country and stomping on their opponents’ heads when words fail them in a debate. We can drink Bacon Soda to calm our fears and heal our nation. In fact, Bacon Soda might just be what we need in order to unify our country once and for all. (If not, at least the Zombie/Internet-meme/bored programmers crowd will have something to drink at lunch.)
As the owner of J &D Foods told AOL, Bacon Soda can be drunk in the morning in lieu of eating actual bacon, or would make a great cocktail mixer. (He failed to specify which alcohol would go well with Bacon Soda, but did state that it was great served cold on ice or with a sandwich.)
I for one can’t wait to try Bacon Soda, if only to impress my friends with my subtle and fake love of bacon.
