My husband loves bacon and I bought this book for him after seeing an article about it in our local newspaper. He has never laughed so hard! And it's all so true!

Length:: 1:55 Mins

Bacon fans will definitely want to read all the odd stories, history, and modern uses of bacon in this fun, breezy read. I read it over the course of a few months, just picking it up here and there with a strip of bacon and a hefty glass of ice water, and it was fun to get some new ideas for how to eat bacon, and some definite ideas that I do NOT want to try (Paula Deen's bacon/ beef/ egg sandwich encased between two glazed donuts - EW!). All in all, a fun read for the bacon fans among us...

From history to recipes this is a great companion for anyone who loves bacon or is looking to explore the diverse nature of everyone's favorite meat!

This is a great book, all you ever wanted to know about bacon and then some! It'll be a classic!

A fun and informative read that is a must have for every bacon connoisseur! Your coffee table will thank you.

fact filled fun book - i'll be pulling out some of the great bacon facts and stories at my next party - likely while eating something wrapped in bacon!!

When I bought this book I was thinking of "Seduced by Bacon", a terrific book. However, this one does not read near as well nor is it attractive. It does have a lot of interesting info about bacon, good for someone seriously into it maybe. However, it did not convey that sensuous, yummy appeal of bacon that is so in right now. I bought it as a gift book also and was disappointed at myself in actually giving it to someone but I certainly couldn't deal with two of them....

I honestly didn't look at the product very much, but I gave it to my brother in law for Christmas, and he certaintly got a kick out of it.

This book is perfect for anyone who loves bacon. Its got history, humor, and a multitude of recipes. I would recommend it.

Filled with factoids about bacon--its history, social significance and even preparation--this is a neat gag gift for somebody who is addicted to eating pig flesh.
