Ahhhhhhhh...BACON!

Have you noticed how adding bacon to food makes it taste sooooooo much better? You could put bacon on or in anything and the taste value goes through the roof. Remember back to one of my earlier entries where I discussed a fabulous new chocolate bar that I had intended to give a client and it "accidentally" ended up in my mouth? WELL...the same company had a few other flavors that I could not help but try. The first being Mo's Bacon Bar...ingredients include: Applewood smoked bacon, Alderwood smoked salt and deep milk chocolate with 45% cacao. Yes, my friends, CHOCOLATE COUPLED WITH BACON...DEEP SIGH! Truly astounding...little bits of smoked bacon accompany a rich, delicious, melt in your mouth milk chocolate....I am kind of speechless right now. The second bar is just as interesting but not as heavenly as the
bar o'bacon. It is called the Black Pearl Bar...ingredients include: Wasabi, Ginger, Black Sesame Seeds and Dark Chocolate with 55% cacao. Now, because dark chocolate tends to overwhelm the rest of the flavors, this particular bar requires a little more patience than the Bacon Bar. One needs to savor the Black Pearl Bar slowly, focusing on the subtle hint of wasabi and ginger while enjoying the nutty texture. I have become a huge fan of "Vosges Haute Chocolat" and would recommend trying one for yourself. Delish...Augustus Gloop and I could become soul mates.
