Yummmm

If I wasn't dieting I would! I love sweet and salty and the coffee shop down the street from my apartment makes Maple Bacon milkshakes that are to die for! LOL!

Where might I find this? yum!

I never liked donuts until I tried Voodoo donuts Maple bacon bars. Now I'll eat that donut.

I will try it at least once

Dennys did it during their baconfest, the waitress told me they sold more then she expected.

Gag! That is all.

Bacon makes everything better.

I don't eat dead animals anymore. Not with a fox or in a box or in my socks.

Uggggh nasty. There is a restaurant here that has a very popular hamburger that I will never try that is just as gross. It is a burger on served on a Krispy Creme glazed donut. They also serve fried Oreo cookies and fried twinkies there. Talk about unhealthy.

I would like to try it. With the 510 calorie count, I think I will just "taste" it.

I agree with this. :-) My sister on the other hand, while thinking that bacon makes other things better, she thinks eating it with anything takes away from the bacon itself, so if she gets it on a burger, she pulls it off and eats it separate. LOL.

Meanwhile, I'd totally try it, though probably not from BK. I used to (on very rare occasions, mind you) go to a place where I'd order a side of bacon, a plate of pickles and a hot fudge sundae cup (though I never combined the foods). They thought I was NUTS (and pregnant, which I wasn't). Can't beat the sweet and salty combo.

It is the candy of the meat group

I can feel the film of cold bacon grease in my mouth just thinking about it. So gross.

I'd eat it (aside from the diet implications). I've had a bacon sundae at an actual restaurant before, and it was good. The salty bacon goes well with the sweetness of the ice cream and fudge.

You know what's good? Bacon pancakes (or chocolate chip bacon pancakes).

I apologize but I'm going to get my food snob on here for a second, please bear with me

I have been to a quite a few high end restaurants (we're talking places you reserve months in advance) and this dish has been happening for quite awhile there. I'm of two minds about it-
1) Boring, it's been done (and better) and now it's kind of played out.
2) I think it's interesting ideas from modernist cuisine (or molecular gastronomy as some call it) have begun to filter down and are now more accessible to everyone. Obviously most people will never eat at WD 50, Fat Duck, Jean-Georges or Momofuku/Milk Bar but deserve to play and enjoy food as much as anyone else.

However, if I'm going to eat something like this, I'd rather save that moment for a REAL chef who knows their flavour profiles. I believe The Fat Duck in the UK (Heston Blumenthal's place) was one of the early places to try this and I adore Heston would rather blow my calories for a week trying his than BK's any day of the week.

(that pic is from 2007 -not mine but it shows how long this idea has been around).

It's actually an AMAZING combination but I doubt BK could do it well.

I'm so over the "bacon on everything" fad. Just watch anything on the food channel for 2 minutes and someone will put bacon on SOMETHING.:grumble:

LOL that drives me crazy. Stop ripping off old ideas from well known chefs and do your own experiments! Bacon is the new gelee which was the new foam. OVER IT.

I am into this trend of savory/herb desserts though. Chamomile ice cream? Yes, please!

That sounds so gross to me! I am a bacon lover, too.

I can feel the film of cold bacon grease in my mouth just thinking about it. So gross.

Now I can, too! :sick:

This sounds absolutely disgusting! My stomach started turning when I saw this advertised on tv this morning.

lizzybethclaire

Ewww...I love bacon, but that's a no-go for me. I bet my kids would eat it though.

Seeing as how I don't like bacon, there's no way!!!

islandgirl1984

Salty and sweet is one of my favorites but I'd much rather have haagan daz salted caramel truffle ice cream. If i''m gonna splurge it better be worth it!

Shock_Wave

Like I posted in the other post on MFP about this......

Pretty yucky combo either way.. Guess thats not helping the over all American healthy diet. Ice cream= mostly sugar+fat some calcium, Bacon =sat fat+cholesterol some protein. I know lets combine them...not!

dusty8907

needs more bacon

sevsmom

Ewww Ewwwww EWWWWWW!!! I can't even tolerate maple syrup from my pancakes getting on my bacon. Bacon is only acceptable with other meat items for me. (i.e. chicken & bacon, bacon cheesburger, etc.) I'll even forgo bacon bits on salad. I want my icecream unadulerated by savory items!

Or maybe bacon just doesn't like you lol...j/k:laugh:

laceylou0702

I just had a friend post a picture of that last night, icky

bethgames

If I wasnt fat, I would eat this...but I am.....so I wont. :grumble:

I don't like mushy bacon, so I would not try it.
