meat paintings

As the title suggests, Mike Geno has done a series of paintings of meat. Bacon, Spareribs, Lamb Leg Chops, and so forth. Buy the originals here ($600 for a 12"x12" oil painting on board), or buy prints for $20 from his etsy site. All very nice paintings offered in a very straight-forward way. Yes. Now just tell me, I'm curious. Who the hell would want a painting of meat (much less a print of a painting of meat) hanging on their wall? I mean besides 2tall (my gastronomical opposite), who is probably wondering if the things come in wallet size.

Bacon Salt

Update !: Middle Bro has correctly noted that the numbers I cited below produce a per-jar cost of $6.25 if ordering 4 jars. This is true. However, I did a bit of rounding on the numbers I cited. The actual cost is $4.49 a jar, plus $5 shipping for up to 4 jars - yielding a price of $5.74 per jar. The per jar price is actually pretty stable to within +/- $0.25 if we order more jars. So however many we order should come out to less than $6 per jar.

So, if anyone is really interested in joining in on this bulk order, leave a post in the comments to tell me know how many jars you'd like, and of which flavor (original bacon, hickory smoked bacon, or peppered bacon). I'll pull the order together, let you know what you owe, and work out a way to get your order to you.



MMMMmmmmmmm..... bacon... Oh Lord, is this the best idea ever? Yes. Yes, it is. Bacon-flavored salt (that's vegetarian, to boot!) Make bacon-flavored popcorn, bacon-flavored french fries, bacon-flavored corn-on-the-cob, bacon-flavored eggs, why the possibilities are endless! And at $5 for a jar, it's reasonably priced for a new item. Now I just have to figure a way to get some without paying an additional $5 shipping on it. (Actually, shipping is 5 bucks for as many as 4 jars. Anybody want in on bacon salt for less than $6 a jar, including shipping?)
