Americans have an unusual obsession with bacon– we eat 2 billion pounds of the stuff each year! We ‘re so obsessed, that some companies are wholly devoted to developing products that smell, look or taste like bacon.
J&D Foods is the leader in all things bacon inspired.
According to their site, they’ve produced these “ridiculous” bacon products:
*Bacon Salt
*Baconnayse
*Bacon Lube- Bacon flavored personal lubricant
*Bacon Lip Balm
*Baconbaby Infant Formula
*Bacon-Air- Bacon scented air freshener
*Bacon Flavored Envelopes
*Bacon Soda
While many of those products sound over the top (uh, bacon lube), J&D’s new product takes the cake. This week, the company previewed its newest product, the bacon coffin. That’s right, a bacon coffin.
“Yes, this is really real,” wrote J&D owners Justin and Dave in a press release. Bacon Coffins are finished with a painted Bacon and Pork shading and accented with gold stationary handles. The interior has an adjustable bed and mattress, a bacon memorial tube and is completed in ivory crepe coffin linens.”
The coffin is printed with a bacon pattern and comes with a bacon memorial tube and a bacon themed air freshener. The ridiculous coffin has an equally ridiculous price tag– $2,999.99.
With a coffin like that, others can be sure you lived high on the hog.
