Donuts: the Bacon Maple Bar
So many ideas bouncing around in my head lately and nowhere for them to land. It’s been a while since I’ve had the time or resources to pull together another video, but I’m hoping to get on it soon.
Instead of making or posting a video I’ll just take a moment to relive part of my week: bacon maple bars. You can get bacon maple bars at your local Zip’s Drive In. A side note: one of my favorite marketing blunders was the following cup by Zip’s which proudly proclaims that it has been around since 53 feet.
Anyways, a coworker brought in the three different variates of ‘weird’ or ‘crazy’ donuts in the other day and we all tried various samples. The first was the Chipotle Chocolate, which looks very much like a chocolate sprinkled donut.
Dont’ try this one, it’ll stick with you all day (and it really did since I had it last out of the three). The second one is the Chili Maple Bar which looks like a freckled maple bar. It’s like maple bar in your mouth and chili powder in your nose. Another poor decision but far less scarring than the Chipotle Chocolate.
Finally we have the Bacon Maple Bar, which is just a maple bar with a strip of crispy bacon melted into the frosting. This could possibly be classified as an abomination by the various ruling bodies governing our food supply, but it was way better than expected. If you like bacon, and you like maple bars, you’ll love this concoction.
The word “concoction” doesn’t look so great in written form… sounds better than it spells. Weird.
Assuming you have the wall space in your arteries for new decorations this is the donut for you. I only had one bite, but it was well worth the impending cardiac failure that it set in motion.
