So much like my last post, this started off of a Google Reader item. An awesome person named Megan shared something amazing. Something life changing. Something so incredibly indescribable there’s no way I could do it justice. Bacon Soda. I immediately bought not one but two… TWO ORDERS. It’s like I was ordering real bacon. One piece of bacon is awesome, two is that much more awesomer! So I bought it, and waited. And waited more. And even more. Checking the tracking number every day, just like it was a birthday present being shipped right to me. (which is in 8 days, BTW. I like shiny things.) And then today, I check my mailbox on lunch on a hunch, and there’s a key! To the package box! I put the key in, turn, and I get an amazing sight. The sight of a Jones Soda box. I open it on my car ride back to work, and the smell of bacon wafts through my car. A magical scent. Excitement fills my nose. I can’t wait to get home and chill the soda. 4PM couldn’t come quick enough. Rush home, throw it in the fridge, and get to cooking supper. Burgers and fries, a great meal that’s always lovingly topped by bacon. Pull everything off the George Foreman and out of the oven, and sit down with my wonderful meal and delicious soda. Crack the soda, and start to sip it down, and…. it’s revolting. It’s disgusting. But by damned, it tastes like bacon. It tastes like bacon juice and sugar. And while bacon is amazing, in liquid form it’s nothing but nasty. I shall not forget the taste. Now, I’ll admit there may be a bias, as I was eating seasoned fries and seasoned burgers, so I’m currently cleansing my palate with a beer. And if it’s any different, you’ll be informed. But something tells me the first taste is as good as it gets.

Now, for pictures.

THE BOX!

THE MEAL!

THE SODA!!!!

Edit: Yeah, the second taste is not all that good either. No bueno. Sorry Jones, this was not a hit.

Pros: Tastes like bacon!

Cons: Tastes like bacon!
