[This man](http://thedreamstress.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Side-of-bacon.jpg) clothed himself in THE GLORY OF BACON, and won a mighty victory!!!

We could all learn from his example.

Tragically, mere seconds after this photograph was taken, the author was killed by a pack of feral dogs. His dying words were “Live fast. Die young. Leave a greasy corpse.”

Arguably the best hamburgers in Bangkok are at the [Firehouse](http://www.firehousethailand.com/en/home/), owned by an American lawyer from Hawaii who is based in Tokyo. It’s not up on the website yet, but they’ve just introduced The Baconist, a burger with a 180-gram patty made half of beef and half of bacon.

Another hero in the bacon wars.

There’s a place in Milwaukee called Moe’s that has a burger with a half pound patty, half a pound of corned beef, and half a pound of bacon, IIRC. Damn near killed me but I would have died happy.
