Bacon Thing of The Day: Chocolate Covered Bacon Maple Donut Bar

Bacon Maple Bar

I understand that Chocolate is the go-to flavor for decadent sweetness, but personally, I think that a vanilla glaze would be better-tasting on this than the chocolate. I would eat it, at any rate.

Happy Birthday, Paramahansa Yogananda!

Paramahamsa Yogananda

Usually, when The ‘Gig gives a shout out to a birthday boy or girl, we try to lump all birthdays happening on the same day together in one post, to save space or whatever. But for reasons which should be obvious, we could not really lump Paramahansa Yogananda (Born January 5th, 1893) – author of Autobiography of a Yogi, founder of Self-Realization Fellowship, and the guy who taught Gandhi how to meditate – in with Marilyn Manson, Antichrist Superstar (Born January 5th, 1969). Because, no. Happy birthday, Paramahansaji!
