Would You Eat Chocolate-Covered Bacon?

Recently, writer Dan Savage posted about chocolate-covered bacon. The picture comes from Marini's in Santa Cruz, CA, and I happen to think it looks sort of tasty. I also happen to be pretty bummed that it wasn't available when I lived in Santa Cruz. I bet the combination of salty and sweet is amazing together. Besides bacon makes everything taste better, right? I know I'd devour a slice, how about you, would you eat this?

    Sure, sign me up!

    You know what else is incredible? Bacon with brown sugar. You do it either in the oven or in a George Foreman grill.

    it sounds strange, but if they make it, people must buy it, and if they buy it, it must have some redeeming qualities, so i'd try it for sure!

    I rather just have the chocolate, especially if it's dark chocolate with a high cocoa percentage.

    Bring it on! I'm ready for a slice right now! I love chocolate covered pretzels, so bacon shouldn't be that different.

    don't they sell this at whole foods? everytime I'm in line i always look at their chocolate bars and there is one with bacon on the package. The brand name is slipping my mind at the moment. another one has chile or something. I think it had a mexican type of name.. Oaxaca or something.

    You know, that salty/sweet combo really does taste amazing. I can see this working. Sounds strange, but I bet it's good. Like when you get fried chicken and waffles, and the maple syrup gets on the chicken...yummmmm...

    I don't know how I feel about this. I seems totally weird, but then not at the same time.

    However, I have seen the chocolate bars that have bacon in them, witchbaby...There's a small candy store in Harvard Square that sells them...A few friends say it's amazing.

    Mmmm, sounds good. That Bacon Bar by Vosges was so good. The salty flavor with the sweet milk chocolate? Delicious.

    If it wasn't real meat, I'd probably try it. I've always been intrigued by slightly weird food, and if they're famous for it, it can't be all that terrible. I'm vegan, though, so no piggies for me.

    I don't really like bacon, and I haven't eaten it in at least 5 years. If my stomach wouldn't absolutely reject such a food, maaaaaaaaybe I'd try it...just maybe. Cause I will admit, I am kind of curious about this flavor pairing...

    Ewwww...no way. I am open to trying new things but I know I would NOT enjoy this. Also not a fan of pork.

    I'll take the chocolate alone please. I -love- chocolate.

    I wouldn't purchase it but if there were free samples I'd go for it. I love the bacon flavored Bertie Bott's beans, so this shouldn't be too far off the mark. It's like dipping your bacon in your pancake syrup

    at least there was the option for 'i don't eat bacon'. being jewish and keeping kosher - i've never had it...and now that i'm a vegetarian, i've still never had it.

    My mom used to make bacon broiled with dark brown sugar, once in a great while. Absolutely yummers, so I figure this would be just as good! I would sooo try it, at least once

    Mmm, I love Marini's. Chocolate covered bacon on the other hand? I might try it once just to see what it would taste like. I like bacon but I'm not a huge fan of eating it cause of the fat content.

    If they made a turkey bacon version I'd give it a try. But with good turkey bacon, not that fruit roll up type.
