Here's today's news from the wonderful world o' bacon:
On a recent episode of Dinner Impossible Michael Symon was making a creamed corn dish which he jazzed up by adding bacon, which he described as his favorite vegetable. (no, that wasn't the episode where he had to cook kosher -- I haven't seen that one yet).

All hail the Holy Church of Bacon. I approve of their message. And, yes, broccoli IS the anti-bacon.

Finally, there's a recipe for bacon cinnamon rolls. I was very excited when I saw a post about this (on Slashfood) but, and this will serve to confirm all my horrible food geek tendencies, much less enthused when I found it called for pop-from-a-can cinnamon rolls. I've been pondering it, though, and I think it'd work from scratch. I'd be inclined to partially cook the bacon first. That'd make sure it got cooked all the way thru while the rolls were baking. Plus you could use some of the bacon fat in with the cinnamon shmear. Yeah, I think it could work. Updates to follow if/when I get around to testing this out.
