Off-Topic: Birthday Cake vs. Bacon

I was perusing Yahoo and came across this article: http://shine.yahoo.com/shine-food/bye-bye-bacon-birthday-cake-8216-8217-...

I'm calling shenanigans.

There is birthday-cake-flavored yogurt, popcorn, candy, iced blended tea, and more. M&Ms recently announced that it would be releasing a birthday-cake version of its iconic candy in May 2014. If you want your actual birthday cake to taste even more like, umm .. .birthday cake, you can add an artificial extract that bills itself as so authentic, "you will smell the wax of the burning candles."

How can birthday cake even be considered when we're talking about bacon?

While that looks amazing, I don't think I can get behind the question posed in this image.

"That move was slicker than a peeled onion in a bowl of snot." -Mike Burnop

Indeed. It was just the best picture of a bacon-cake combo that I could find that represented my initial reaction to the thread of, "why not both?"

"Exit light..."

There's really no question here...

I would want to have sex IMMEDIATELY with the person who baked me this cake.

Leonard. Duh.

I would have gone with a maple-flavored butter-cream icing, but chocolates not bad either. Hmmm..., I now have a birthday cake request to ask my wife. This will be glorious.

Made it. Ate it. Almost died.

Can I vote for both? Though I eat bacon much more often.

Bacon, without a doubt

I like makin bacon, and making bacon.

Bacon.

If it doesn't have protein, it ain't a meal.

Birthday cake is cake, so therefore bacon.

Bacon > pie > lots of other things > cake

I don't understand men's obsession with bacon. I've seen bacon scented candles, dental floss...
I just don't get it. Not that I don't like bacon. However, I don't like the smell of it cooking.

Much like the female's fascination with all things pumpkin between September and November, men love bacon because no matter what you do with it, it's delicious. Candy it with some brown sugar, put it in cupcakes or on doughnuts, put it on top of burgers or pizza. It can be used for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. In fact, I'm currently using a bacon bandaid to cover my scars from my appendectomy last week, a gag gift put to good use. Don't knock the bacon!

Hey now not ALL women love things pumpkin, including me. LOL

@AMB4VT

Obsession? I view it more as giving it the proper credit as being the greatest multi-purpose food/smellular product out there. I would take bacon body wash to keep my nostrils going allll dayyyy looooong.

All things wonderful....

Take the shortest route to the ball and arrive in bad humor.

Bringing a meat into a dessert fight is just unfair
