Poetry in Bacon

TurbaconduckenToo much bacon? Is it even possible? Apparently, it is.

Behold the Turbaconducken!

The Turbaconducken is a whole cut up chicken, each piece individually wrapped in bacon, stuffed inside a whole duck, also completely swathed in bacon and then crammed into a turkey which is… plastered in bacon.

I wonder why they didn’t deep fry it?

OK, the outside looks tolerable, but I don’t even want to think about the gelatinous swamp of fat that poured out of the murky interior.

My 22-year-old-bacon-loving son’s response:

7:17:13 PM Alan: okay
7:17:16 PM Alan: speaking as a bacon enthusiast
7:17:18 PM Alan: that is just
7:17:20 PM Alan: too much bacon
7:17:29 PM me: who knew there was such a thing?
7:17:33 PM Alan: I was aware
7:17:49 PM me: I mean, such a thing as too much bacon
7:18:02 PM Alan: yes
7:18:04 PM Alan: it is rare
7:18:05 PM Alan: but achievable

Reformatted as poetry:

A Poem for the Morning

okay
speaking as a bacon enthusiast
that is just
too much bacon
who knew there was such a thing?
I was aware
I mean, such a thing as too much bacon
yes

it is rare
but achievable

  1. Speaking as a person who finally lost 50 pounds after giving up bacon, I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I used to enjoy peanut butter & bacon sandwiches (which included like 8 slices of bacon), and in my “prime” waas able to put away a whole pound of bacon in a lonely day. I still say bacon makes anything taste better, and if drained of the grease would have at one time probably enjoyed the fowl concoction you describe. But it’s been 3 years now, and like a crack addict I know I can never go back to eating it without getting out of control.

    Now leave me alone with my carrot.
