Burger King Gives Us The Bacon Sundae We've Always Wanted But Were Afraid To Ask For
the consumerist ^ | June 12, 2012 | Chris Morran

Burger King, home of the Whopper and, at least for a limited time, the bacon sundae.

The AP reports that BK will launch the treat — which has fudge, caramel, crumbled bacon and a full piece of bacon — later this week, along with other limited time items.

It has 510 calories, 18 grams of fat and 61 grams of sugar, but we're guessing that these numbers won't discourage the bacon-curious from giving it a try.

I actually don’t think 500 calories is so outrageous for a big dessert.

Obviously they are not an everyday thing, but Burger King in general isn’t.

I have a deep and abiding love for bacon, but this particular application doesn’t sound appealing to me. Each to their own, though.

The last time someone told me to try just one it was chocolate and chili flavoured potato crisps, it was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted.

Cool. Give me the option to eat the biggest nastiest bacon laden major cheese burger I want. Plus super-size my curly fries. And don't forget the 16 ounce colas that Bloomberg wants to outlaw.

I nowadays rarely eat such stuff only because I prefer chicken salad and chips and want to stay in shape. I reserve the right to eat high calorie, high fat foods whenever on occasion - nanny state be damned.

That’s not as good as my invention of ice cream mixed with pre-chewed chewing tobacco and that jelly you find in canned hams.

Careful, your morbid curiosity could anger the Bacon Gods.

Your penance will require you eat a cold BLT using Miracle Whip instead of the Nectar of the Bacon Gods, Mayonnaise.

I’m curious. Why are all these weird bacon entrees popular?

* Because Bacon is the gateway drug for Vegetarians.
* Like buying Beck's, Levin's and many others books, it is our way of thumbing our nose at the nanny state.
* Especially thumbing our nose at this one....
