Spray-on bacon!

For centuries, man has fought a ceaseless battle to create futuristic pork products. Witness the peak of technology that is Schneider's Grill'ems, featuring built-in cheese.

Last week, a post on Fark caught my eye. A new player in the technopork arena: David Burke's Flavor Spray.



Intrigued, I ordered a bottle of Smoked Bacon and a bottle of Banana Split. Today, my package arrived...

The illustrious David Burke has put the word "diet" in his domain name, but seems to fall just short actually putting it on the product. Notice the ™ position in the logo:



I'm not sure how spraying weird stuff on flavourless items will cause anyone to lose weight.

No, wait.

I am sure - because the hideous Smoked Bacon flavour made my plain rice disgusting. The initial whiff was "Hrm, that smells like those really smoky artificial bacon bits.". A second sniff produced the dry heaving noise gurgled by Fry in the Futurama episode "A Big Piece Of Garbage". (That means it was super-gross.)

And Banana Split? Blecch. But for a truly tragic taste, try combining it with Smoked Bacon! My eyes were weeping for my nose and stomach.

However, nauseating though it may be, Smoked Bacon spray is really futuristic so I gave it an A+!
