I never thought I'd look at a package of bacon and turn up my nose, but what the hell is this monstrosity?!?!
It's like on the movies, where they take a great hero, and then they torture him and torture him until he breaks, and then he fights for evil. It's just wrong. Somebody should rescue that bacon and get the damn Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnadust off to see if it's salvageable...or is it just better to put it out of its misery?
I am reminded of the movie The Golden Child.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried this particular thing, but I've found that, because of its constant inclusion with sugar, that cinnamon doesn't make everything better. I like the flavor of bacon a lot. When I still ate sugar, I like Cinnamon Toast Crunch a decent amount too. I never once, however, thought those two things ought to be combined. It would have taken an accident like they used to have in the old Reese's Peanut Butter Cups commercials where the people yell at each other saying, "Hey! You got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" and the other guy yells, "Hey! You got your chocolate in my peanut butter!" to get me to mix bacon and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I love maple donuts too, but I never wanted to have one of those abominable bacon maple donuts either.
ReplyDeleteI get that. I've added just cinnamon sticks to my coffee ground basket and that's AMAZING. I add cinnamon to my chili and that adds a quality that cumin doesn't. It's the kind of thing you don't necessarily pick up on but I miss if it's not there. I have added cinnamon to a pork/rib rub which is why I thought it would be good with bacon, but my rub doesn't have any sugar.
DeleteIn the spirit of full transparency, I like maple bacon bars, but only if it's real maple and only about half a bar. Too often donut places use artificial maple flavoring.
