BaconPop, one of J&D's more edible products |
On my way into work this morning, I heard on the local news
station a little story about a company in Seattle that’s started making
bacon-scented shaving cream.
Before the newscaster said the company’s name, I knew it could
only be J&D’s.
J&D’s – named after the founders, Justin and Dave – have been
making interesting bacon products like Bacon Salt, Baconnaise, and BaconPop
here in Seattle for years. They also happen to be our neighbors. I have fond memories their
full-size bacon coffin, or that time they proudly showed us their most XXX-rated product,
edible bacon-flavored personal lubricant.
So, I guess bacon shaving cream was inevitable. After all, bacon
shaving cream, “is what Vikings
would have used this to mow down their impenetrable forest of man-beard,” says
the J&D’s website.
J and D know how to have fun, and
they know how to meld bacon with anything – obviously.
Not game to shave with bacon? Well,
then you really should look into their more edible products. Items like bacon
malt salt and Baconnaise are quite delightful.
They’re also safe for vegetarians – there’s no actual bacon involved –
and Kosher.
Whether you’re shopping for a gag
gift or just something to sweeten up the life of a porcine-loving friend, invest
in some J&D’s. Check out their full line at Chef Tools here.
