Cheap Thangs: May 2009 Archives

bacon jelly beans.jpg

Seriously folks, what is the deal with the bacon phenomenon? There's bacon wallets, bacon socks, bacon bubble gum, bacon bandages, gummy bacon. There's even a bacon AK-47 out there somewhere. Why?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for quirky stuff and fun gag gifts. And these Bacon-Flavored Jelly Beans would probably be a funny gift for the bacon-lover in your life. But then I read one of the consumer comments:

"...these taste nothing like bacon. More like ashtray and refried beans."

Gross. That's just gross.

You know what's not gross, but is instead a quirky and fun gag gift that in fact tastes delicious? Vat19's Giant Gummy Bear on a Stick, that's what.
