  • Bacon Vodka

    Ok, so I might have gotten a little carried away with the whole infusing things into vodka over the weekend.  I decided to pay tribute to the current swine flu and make bacon infused vodka.  This process is going to be a little bit easier than the Skittles.  All that happens here is putting cooked bacon and fat into a mason jar, pouring vodka to the top, and letting it sit for a week.  After this, I will put the jar in the freezer for a few hours so the fat rises to the top, remove the fat, and strain several times to remove small bacon bits.  This should be ready to go by Friday and I will be sure to share the results with you.  I’m sure you’re VERY excited after seeing this picture.

  • Pancho Villa’s 8 LB. Burrito

    Many thanks to Craig, a reader of the blog/lover of freedom, for sending me this picture of Pancho Villa’s 8 lb. “Super Burrito“.  This tray sized burrito is stuffed with your choice of ground beef, shredded beef or shredded chicken,  lettuce, onions, tomatoes, beans, and rice.  The price tag is $14.95 but if you can finish it there’s no charge.  That must be some kind of sick joke.

    Apparently Craig was not aware that the “Super Burrito” weighed in at 8 pounds, and managed to get through about 4  pounds of it.  For this effort, I salute you.

  • The Fifth-Third Burger

    Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you…

    The Fifth Third Burger.

    1.66 pounds of beef, lettuce, tomato, salsa, sour cream, chili, and Fritos. All on an eight-inch sesame seed bun. Officially it feeds one to four people.

    Best part about this burger?  It’s within driving distance of me.  They sell it at West Michigan Whitecaps Fifth Third Ballpark in Comstock Park, Michigan.

    I will eat it.  Oh yes I will.

    Oh, and I added a new page to the top to group together all the eating conquests I plan on attempting and the ones I have already tried.  Take a look.  It’s a work in progress!
