Advances In Bacon

Advances In Bacon

September 22

Forgive your Smile File editors for being absent Monday — we were in transit to NYC to attend the Clinton Global Initiative annual meeting. In fact, as we write, we're cold chillin' in the press room thinking fondly of the bomb-sniffing security dog we met outside. A very sweet chocolate lab.

While we wait for CGI to kick-off, you can read our Clinton Global Initiative coverage en total, or you can come with us as we mentally wander to our happy place: advances in bacon.

Today's Smile File comes courtesy Smile Filer Ben and fancy blog ThinkGeek, for they have discovered the ultimate: Bacon Salt. As you know we're big fans of anything bacon-related, so this just tops off our happy spot.

We're pretty sure some of the attendees at CGI will frown at us for celebrating a culprit in making America fat (we're looking at you Ashton), but we care not. We will eat a salad after we have our fries topped off with bacon salt. And then go for a run. And drink a bottle of water. So there.
