The Bacon Belt

One of my least favorite fashion trends in the U.S. is the muffin top. You know, when your jeans get a little too tight, but instead of giving them to Goodwill you just keep rocking them and add a slightly-too-short…

Bacon Soap

You know how when one vampire movie (or zombie movie, or movie about Truman Capote) comes out, suddenly there are one or two others within the next 12 months? Like, everyone had this great idea right around the same time for some…

I'm sure you've all heard of chicharrones. Also known as pork rinds or cracklin's and often sold in liquor stores with a small packet of hot sauce, these puffy pig fat treats are a mere shadow of the real thing.…

Bacon Caramels

A reader named Chrissie sent me a link to this recipe for Bacon Caramels, and I cannot thank her enough. Although I've never made candy, and I know it can be tricky, I think we'll give these a try for…

Independence Bacon

I know the 4th of July was almost a week ago, and that by posting a week late I seem deeply ungrateful for my many liberties, but that popcorn post was really important. Plus? I was too hungover on Sunday…

Bacon Popcorn Paradise

I have to start this post with two apologies. First, I apologize to the Paradise Island Gourmet Popcorn company. We were remiss in sampling your product. Second, I apologize to our readers, for not getting the word out sooner about…

Bacon & Fireworks

I just love the 4th of July. I wish I could say it was because I'm so patriotic. Don't get me wrong; I'm wildly grateful to live in America and truly enjoy the freedoms that come along with that privilege,…

I love how there are flowers and cloth napkins on the table. And also...an entire bottle of Wild Turkey 101. The perfect meal for a special occasion. Or an awesome first date. Thanks, Todd!

I cannot believe how much bacon art there is to be found in this wacky world of ours. This piece here was on display at Bacon Camp in San Francisco in March. Ranging from beautiful to bizarre to downright ridiculous,…

I've been thinking all week, and I decided I just don't have much bacon news to report from across the pond. Although we did enjoy the bacon turnovers in England a great deal, I can't find a photo of them...Naseem probably…

Cheerio! Royal Bacon Society is back from our European Vacation! (Naseem, by the by, has never seen European Vacation and never laughed once when I said, "Look Naseem, Big Ben. Parliament." I started feeling kind of stupid after the 10th…

Twice Baconed Potatoes

I tend to get really lazy about cooking when my husband is out of town, which is good in some ways. More salads, fewer rich cream sauces, less red meat. But my husband's gone a lot so eventually I get…

As our faithful readers already know, RBS headquarters are located in Santa Barbara, home of no less than three major wildfires in the past year. It's been scary and chaotic, but I recently had the super fun experience of having…

Flaming Bacon Lance of Death

Do you like bacon? (Well, technically prosciutto.) Of course you do. Do you like science content in your bacon blog? Who doesn't?! Then I give you Theo Gray's steel-cutting prosciutto torch. What could be more exciting than pork products cutting…
