@Hillary

While I did write two posts about bacon during the voting, I would argue that neither of them made bacon sound more appetizing. One was a gun made out of bacon (gross) and the other compared bacon lovers to chemistry nerds.

I’ve been rooting for bacon to get upset all along, but honestly, chicken might be a little to boring to take it out. I thought sausage had a shot, but then it was upset in the first round by ribs.

I can’t believe bacon won. Jon, I think you threw this battle with all your bacon blogging DURING the voting period. Tsk, tsk…

Uh, come on- this is a no-brainer. Which is more versatile? Did anyone EVER coin the phrase “tastes just like bacon” I think not- and for good reason. There are very few foods that taste like bacon-although there was that badly prepared octopus I had that one time…..Anyway, chicken can be prepared to taste like almost anything, and for that poor b..d who is allergic to it- try snake. It tastes just like chicken :>

Chicken – although if broccoli tasted like bacon – more people would eat it

Because chicken explosion just doesn’t have the same ring.

Nice, looks like we are one step closer to a bacon-steak final.

ever heard of:

bacon parmesan?
bacon pot-pie?
buffalo style bacon-wings?
kung pao bacon?
kentucky fried bacon?
bacon kabab?
jerk bacon?
bacon enchiladas?
bacon and waffles? (well, ok…)
bacon noodle soup?
tur-duck-on? (though, it might not be bad)
bbq bacon pizza?
bacon and pesto pasta?
bacon au vin?
rotisserie bacon?

alright. bacon probably should win. i’d eat a piece of bacon over a piece of chicken any day. chicken does win, though, if you’re going by versatility.

Chicken is versatile. Bacon is divine.

Have you ever heard of “chicken wrapped” anything? On the other hand bacon is used to wrap many things including a great steak…that has to say something, and besides it is great on it’s own
