IN HONOR OF JOHN SCALZI, APRIL IS THE OFFICIAL MONTH OF BACON!


That's right folks, Day 8 of Bacon Month is here! Today's entry is:


Chocolate and Bacon Candy Bar


The newest flavor from Vosges, the inimitable Mo's Chocolate and Bacon Candy Bar, combines smoky bacon and sweet milk chocolate. Vosges creator Katrina explains the origins of this unique 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. Just a bite of the bacon was too salty and yearned for the sweet kiss of chocolate syrup. In retrospect, perhaps this was a turning point, for on that plate something magical happened: the beginnings of a combination so ethereal and delicious that it would haunt my thoughts until I found the medium to express it--chocolate."


Ingredients:Applewood smoked bacon, Alder smoked salt, and deep milk chocolate.


Gluten free.


To honor Mr. Scalzi for having fired his long-time shoe salesman to get in on walleye season this year and hopefully land the biggest fish, we ask that everyone who knows him personally please buy him a case of these wonderful bacon treats and send them to him with our compliments!
