Colored Bacon

by Boss Hog

Click for Bacon!

Neil Caldwell has come up with something that is pure genius. He has created the color wheel of bacon!

No, this bacon was not a victim of photoshop. This is real colored bacon. And you can eat it! Nom, nom, nom!

In the photos above, you can see the raw bacon in their color bowls and the cooked colored bacon below it. Notice how well the color is retained? Seriously awesome!

It’s probably the most delicious rainbow we’ve ever seen. Put some golden tots at the end of this bacon rainbow and you’ll definitely get lucky. Show your Bacon Pride!

Maybe this rainbow would work if you used bacon jerky?

    I wish this bacon trend would die already. It’s so lame. I like to eat bacon on occasion yes, but I don’t have an orgasm over it. So many foods are way better.

    Bacon is not a trend, it is meat that is reaching its full potential, and people are finally starting to give it the recognition it deserves.

    The bacon looks weird. Seeing this is remembering my College days that I ate blue sauce spaghetti. I think Neil Caldwell is studying about how humans can eat those foods that we are not actually convenient in eating when their color will change. I am 100% that these colored bacon are still pretty yummy as the bacon we usually ate! Bon Appetit!

    “Ever had trouble getting your kids to eat their meat?”

    Um, no. How about a more realistic bacon-vs-kids question:

    “Ever had to banish your entire family from the kitchen to stop all the pork products from vanishing so that by the time you actually serve breakfast it’s only eggs and toast and nobody is interested?”

    Yeah, yellow bacon would definitely solve that one. “Eww, what’s wrong with the bacon?”

    Alfred Hitchcock used to play games with his dinner guests – he would have his gourmet chef prepare a wonderful dinner in high classic French style, all strictly by the book except for one detail: all the food would be dyed bright electric blue. No matter how hard they tried, most could NOT eat the food.
