    Just when you thought bacon couldn't be improved!

    Tired of only eating, writing on, dressing with, and fucking your bacon?


    Well good news everybody!


    Jones has just released a BACON flavored soda - just in time for Thanksgiving!

    "Nailing the flavor was tough. We didn't want pot roast, we didn't want pork tenderloin, we wanted bacon. The drink started out tasting more like ham than pork. But eventually we were able to get the crispiness of bacon in there without it being overpowered by porkiness," Esch said.

    ...

    "We spent many rounds and many afternoons getting the flavor right. One would be too smoky, one too sweet, one too much like maple. But the flavor we finally went with is spot-on. It's a complex flavor with many levels. I think we hit it out of the park on this one," Spear said.
    Everybody rejoice! :D


    Spoiler: show
    Yes, this deserves its own thread.

    and while I'm at it, I propose the kind of bacon:

    Ever had one of their holiday packs before?
    If so, the answer is clear.

    I'm optimistic about the bacon flavor. A lot of the non-traditional flavors don't really work out because there's no factor of sweetness. With bacon, you can easily give it a sweet flavor and still be chock full of bacon

    Not sure if I'd want liquid-flavored bacon, but I'm up for trying it.

    As far as bacon-flavored products goes, I quite like the Lays Smoky Bacon chips, but they're more smoky than they are bacony.

    There was an article about Bacon Flavored Soda in the Daily News last weekend. Pretty much everyone who tasted it said it was god. fucking. awful.

    Except for kids, kids think everything is great. Except my belt. GET OFF MY LAWN.

    i'm gonna say:
    bacon is mediocre at best, over-baconing is disgusting, and you should only be eating it for breakfast, not burnt or crispy but that nice cooked kind of chewy

    therefore, i submit to you that you are all overplaying the importance/taste of bacon

    I'll probably try this soda even if it ends horribly for myself.

    It probably will be terrible, but I'll try it. Some friends and I used to buy the holiday packs at charity auctions, and then try the horrible horrible horrible stuff. After which we made other people try it as well while we laughed at their reactions. If anything it'll be fun to drink with few friends and go wtf at the taste good or bad.
