Happy Easter… and Here’s Why

by Mike Kirsch

Happy Easter, baconites! 

It’s time for another wonderful religious celebration that brings along with it a fine tradition of celebratory eats.

It’s a little known fact that an Easter basket in Poland contains plentiful portions of smoked bacon!  The Polish basket, in fact, contains several lesser-known items that may just tickle your fancy (or your tastebuds).  Accoridng to Emily Kesten of the Southwest Iowa News, there are a lot of Easter traditions that we may not all be familiar. In her article she shares,

“A Polish Easter basket contains maslo (butter) shaped into a lamb or cross, babka (Easter bread) shaped as a cross or fish…  smoked bacon… and cheese.”

That’s one Easter tradition I’m looking forward to.

If you were lucky enough to get the greatest meat of all in your basket today or not, enjoy this Easter and fry up some Bacon!

    This day was indeed bacon day for me as well. Lent had to be a sacrifice that would really hurt me, and our favourite porcine product got the chop. 4 meals of bacon and counting!
