The future is here and it smells so good. Like bacon in the morning good. Hormel modified a Track T800 CDI motorcycle made by E.V.A. Products to run on 100% biodiesel. Naturally, biodiesel comes from bacon grease so you’ve got one mean, bacon-smellin’ machine. Interestingly, a pound of bacon grease converts to a gallon of biodiesel gas. Hormel plans to use the bike on a cross country journey to find people passionate about projects in their life. Such as…anything bacon.

The bacon train never stops. Ritz just released Bacon-Flavored Ritz Crackers. There are those bacon products you can’t eat, but this actually sounds good. Cheese, crackers and bacon. Seems like a logical partnership. With these, you’ll get all your dietary needs: protein from the bacon, dairy from the cheese and carbs from the crackers. It’s a win-win-win for your belly.
Bacon Grill Rack
Gear By on Mar 18, 2014
Every outdoor party needs a little bacon. It tastes great in hot dogs, hamburgers and just by itself. Make grilling bacon even easier with the Bacon Grill Rack ($20). Lay strips of bacon on top of the stainless steel rack. Grease wells on the bottom allow the bacon drippings to collect, making for healthier and crispier bacon, and also preventing those tiny little fires on the grill from the oil. If grilling bacon’s not enough for you, have you thought about waking up to it?
New App Wakes You Up With The Smell of Bacon
Media By on Mar 7, 2014
Revolutionary. Disrupter. Driverless cars? Expedition to Mars? Nope. Oscar Mayer has produced an app and plug-in device that wakes you up to the sound, and smell, of bacon. The Wake Up & Smell the Bacon app is live in the iTunes store. It’s legit, Oscar Mayer says they’ve made thousands of these peripheral devices. You plug in the device to your iPhone (sorry Android users) and in the morning, the smell of pork wafts through your room. There’s a catch. Oscar Mayer will give away the devices; they’re not for sale. Here’s hoping that you’re only of the lucky ones.
