While trying to stay on Atkins, I occasionally get cravings for one food or another. Once in a while, I see an ad that drives me crazy with hunger; enter Burger King.
Burger King was always the winner when it came to a bacon cheeseburger, but it’s now upped its game with the Bacon King sandwich.
The delicious looking new offering is made up of two quarter pounder burgers and eight slices of bacon. Yes, you read that correctly – EIGHT. That’s an entire packet of bacon.
Eh, I mean, a packet of bacon is pretty good… for a start, I guess.
The O.K. Corral 
Hmm, the writer must be used to small packets of bacon. The ones I buy usually have about 12 slices per. Just saying. : )

William – It’s a story out of Britain, so the Limeys probably have smaller packets.

So I’m guessing the wife is going to start finding crumpled up BK wrappers under the front seat of the car.

I actually went on a Bacon Quest yesterday. I got an email from my local Grocery Outlet that they had an estimated 3 days worth of bacon, 3# for $6.97. Two bucks thirty-two for a pound of bacon? Not bad. By the time I got to the store on Monday, the price had dropped to $5, but like Old Mother Hubbard’s cupboard…it was bare! A buck sixty-seven a pound is about what I used to pay for bacon in the ’80s.

I worked at a BK back in 1978. To this day, I refuse to touch any of their food (with 1 exception, about 8 years ago & that was to humor the grandkids).
