Soy sauce has, in fact, been around approximately 2500 years, so obviously we would be able to make it without a processing plant (always a good thing), so as long as the soy sauce we buy is made in the same way, all is good. The bottle we have in the fridge seemed okay, but I wanted to double-check a bit, and oddly, Amazon is a great resource for hard-to-find groceries (and we found our coffee and end tables there, but that really has nothing to do with this story). I was browsing through the "condiments & sauces" category, when I ran across this:

Bacon-flavored mayonnaise--which conveniently comes in a three pack, as of course this is one of those items that you wouldn't ever want to run out of. Wait--it gets even better. For friends and loved ones:
There's a gift set, complete with bacon-flavored lip balm. Because I just can't tell you how many times I've kissed Andy and wished he was more hickory-smoke flavored.....Well butter my backside & call me a biscuit--I think our Christmas shopping is done for the year!

'Butter my backside and call me a biscuit' - I LOVE that!
And now that I'm aware that bacon-flavored lip balm exists, I plan to getting some for my husband. He thinks I have an unnatural attraction to bacon - for a Jewish girl.
OK...that is just SO wrong!! Love it.
What a peculiar idea!
I noticed a bacon-flavour air freshener when I followed the link to see more about this bacon-flavoured mayonnaise. Why???
Really strange............
The whole idea really made me chuckle.
ROFLOL!! I read this, chuckled a bit and told J. We agreed that baconnaise was scary and odd, but would probably taste quite good in a 100% artificial additives, guilty secret kind of way. Then I told him about the lib balm and he astutely observed, "That'll be a tube of pig fat, then?"
Yes, he could be right. The Lard Marketing Board. may well have come up with a masterstroke.
