Usually if someone makes something out of bacon we get pretty excited about sharing the result with you. In this case, though, it’s the beginning of their story that I felt was newsworthy.

Kim W. shot us this link to the Commanche Club. It’s an post written by a guy who had made his first bacon explosion. You can read the post to see how he followed the original recipe and ended up with his own heart-attack-in-a-tube, but I wanted to draw your attention to the very first thing he said and the very first picture he posted:

“It all started last night when my wife came home with a mysterious box. I got up to investigate as she laid it on the counter with a *thump*. It was a cardboard box, and inside it, 10 lbs of bacon.”

So many questions…

Where do you buy a box of bacon?

How much does a 10lb box of bacon cost?

Why is all the bacon just piled in the box?

Was it FedExed?

I love to see something as ridiculous as a box of bacon. It reminds me that there is still good in this world.
