Mrs.Drinky gifted me a year's subscription to the Bacon of the Month club a couple of years ago.  Pretty pricey for what you get (which is why I didn't renew it), but still nice to get a pound or so of sweet bacon in the mail once a month.

Bacon of the month?  How many different kinds of bacon are there that there needs to be a club?

You would receive a package from a different smokehouse once a month.  Each smokehouse has their own take/specialty.  Sometimes it would be an applewood smoked bacon, some were more peppery, etc.  It was like the microbrew beer of the month, only with delicious pork.

How pricey was it?

Because delicious bacon delivered to your door sounds like it could be worth at least a decent premium.

http://www.gratefulpalate.com/?p=Category_11 was my hookup.

$150 plus S&H for a year.  Considering you only get a pound at best each month, it just seemed a little steep.  But, the bacon was almost always awesome.

That just sounds totally fantastic.
FIRE EVERYBODY!

And I'll pretend that's still the case.

Is it too late to mention that I am a vegetarian?

Oh, who the fuck am I kidding, I killed three hogs in the time it took to write this post.

I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I can actually feel my blood slowing down just looking at the picture of that burger.  I want one so badly that if you turned up on my doorstep with one right now, you could have my first-born in exchange.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

This is what Paula thinks of as "lite fare".  When her show comes on the Food Network either I or Mrs. Hawk invariably say "I wonder how she is going to try to kill us tonight".  Another example, bacon wrapped deep fried mac and cheese squares (with the mac and cheese made with sour cream, natch).
