JLowe* kindly bought these for us this weekend because he wanted to give them to someone and could think of no greater bacon fans in his life.
They are, as promised, full of both smoky bacon and crisp mint flavor. The combination doesn't taste bad so much as fill you with a deep sense of wrongness and the merest hint of violation. I suspect we will have them around for a while.
I also tried a bacon chocolate bar at work the other day. It was a little disappointing in that it was neither very bad nor very good. I had really thought it would be one or the other. Instead it just tasted like a moderately good-quality chocolate bar with Bac-Os mixed in, not the salty-sweet delight/terrible aberration I had been expecting.
Anyway, if you see me around, hit me up for a novelty mint and I'd be delighted to give you one. There were no takers on the Iranian cigarettes, though, so I'm not holding my breath. Which for some reason smells like Altoids and Liquid Smoke right now.
