While visiting friends, I sampled a new taste treat: Candied Bacon.

Yes, bacon with added sugar coating! I didn't get the full recipe, but it amounts to frying up the bacon using a bacon press to keep it flat, cutting it into about 1 inch pieces, and adding a brown sugar syrup coating.

It was yummy - and I had to work very hard to keep from eating more than 4 small pieces. The first taste caused much MMmmmmmm-ing and rolling of eyes heavenward.

It combines all the worst possible nutrition elements - hence it was the perfect holiday treat!

I hope all my flist had something equally tasty and decadent over the holidays!
