Yeah, I did a double take too when I saw this mentioned over at BoingBoing (Bacon candy bar). It seems that premium chocolate makers Vosges have a exotic chocolate bar called the Mo's Bacon Bar, complete with real bits of applewood smoked bacon in milk chocolate. Here's from the product description:
Deep milk chocolate coats your mouth and leads to the crunch of smoked bacon pieces. Surprise your mouth with the smoked salt and sweet milk chocolate combination.
Crisp, buttery, compulsively irresistible bacon and milk chocolate combination has long been a favorite of mine. I started playing with this combination at the tender age of six while eating chocolate chip pancakes drenched in maple syrup. Beside my chocolate-laden cakes laid three strips of fried bacon, just barely touching a sweet pool of maple syrup.
Link to the product.
Now, I love bacon, and I love chocolate, but there's just something about putting them together that just sounds unappetizing. Not to mention expensive, $7 for a candy bar is just a little over my snacking budget. But hey, given the chance, I'd try it, if for nothing else just to say I did. (Pic copyright Vosges, LTD.)
