Bacon flavored chewable pills.

**Happy** , you’d be a billionaire. Especially if you could make the green ones chocolate flavored.  
Ooooh homemade bacon flavored soft pretzels! Holy crap, I’m gonna need a case of this stuff. I should probably tell everyone now that I’ll need bacon salt for Christmas, my birthday, and graduation.

I beat you to it this morning, actually. 🙂 But there is so much more love in this thread for Bacon Salt now than there was earlier…hopefully they’ll peruse this over the weekend and bestow bacon gifts upon the SD masses.

From a throwaway mention in that thread, how about corn bread with bacon salt?

Or would that be too much?

I must say, that after seeing this thread and the associated brilliant, genius, divine product, I passed the url around to workmates and friends who all uttered words such as “Brilliant!” “Genius!” & “Divine!”, and immediately started placing orders.

I have a [metric assload of beef](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=429041&highlight=beef+recipes) to bbq this summer, and the mere thought of a bacon-flavored London Broil just curls my toes and earlobes.

Color this vegetarian impressed. Also, I think that “Bacon Salt” is going to become the next SDMB meme.

ETA: yummy, chewy, smoky BACON!
