Here's the skinny on some pancake syrup:

Log Cabin All Natural Syrup not the real deal

A new Log Cabin syrup touted as "all natural" looks a lot like the pure, 100 percent maple product that's the pride of Vermont, right down to its packaging in a plastic beige jug.

But Vermont officials, seeking to protect the state's signature commodity, contend that Log Cabin All Natural Syrup is not what it seems, enticing consumers into dousing their pancakes with ingredients that include caramel color, xanthan gum — a natural thickener — and a paltry 4 percent maple.

Don’t forget the bacon in the side dishes:

Bacon-Chive Potato Salad

2 1/2 lbs small red potatoes
1/2 cup bacon bit
1/4 cup chives, minced
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. 2 Bring to a boil.
3 Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
4 Drain and cool.
5 Cut into wedges; place in a serving bowl.
6 Add bacon and chives.
7 In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper.
8 Spoon over salad; toss to coat.
9 Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Whatever you have for dinner, make sure you finish it off with a crusader helmet cake for dessert!

Well, for lunch we will have Muzzie Paninis.

Roast pork, ham and bacon with a pickle and horseradish mayo.

Then for dinner, we will Obami Dogs.

Pork hotdogs wrapped in bacon, grilled, and add cooked chorizo on top, along with onions!!

Probably use the koran to light the fire.

Yum, but about that blt first:

Obama's next crisis - how will the White House handle increasing bacon prices?

August 2, 2010 Prices for fresh pork bellies, from which bacon is made, are at an all-time high of $1.35 a pound, 53% higher than they were a year ago. Bacon demand tends to peak during the summer, when supermarkets heavily promote the meat product—sliced from the fatty part of a pig’s abdomen—to coincide with a seasonal bump in Americans’ consumption of BLTs: bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches.

Looks like a project to me, but it is handy to know about.

Maybe some brats in Pillsbury crescent rolls will do.

I predict it will come down. Every farmer I know is raising pigs because the price is so high. There will be a glut of pork bellies, soon.

Now that our tomato season is over, I am not buying bacon until the price is back to reasonable. I have over 3 pounds in the freezer and a pound in the fridge, so we will just eat it more sparingly for a few months.

My son who just returned from Iraq makes a wonderful dish. He takes jumbo shrimp, adds a slice of jalapano pepper (seeds removed), wraps this is bacon, and while it cooks on the grill, he bastes it with honey. Depending on how long the skewer is one can fit 8 to 10 shrimp on a single skewer. This is an easy dish, and one can substitute beef, chicken, or pork in place of the shrimp. God Bless.

Is it coincidence that both local grocery store fliers today were prominently featuring PORK as their eye-catcher front-page special?

Thanks. Good to know.

I did find a mega-site for grocery prices, in case someone wants to check around for brats or ribs or bacon, etc.

Kinda makes me want to just go get a flyer somewhere.

We use about a quarter package of bacon for a quick batch of bean soup (lima bean my favorite). It’s one of those meals that gives a lot of bang for the buck.

Also try the Asian markets. They usually have pig’s heads there. They do at mine.

I raise my own pigs. Strangely enough, I had one volunteer for the weekend festivities. But she's always been such a show off...

Hint for making potato salad:

Cook the potatoes a day ahead. Set them in a big bowl when they are still piping hot and dump a whole bottle of Wishbone Italian Dressing on them. Cover with plastic wrap and set in fridge for 12 to 24 hours. Then follow your usual potato salad recipe by adding hard cooked eggs, chopped onions, etc. EXCEPT don’t add any mayo. Just toss on more Italian dressing. People will love it. One other thing the women in my family have done is put dill pickle juice on the potatoes ahead of time ... not only my mom, my grandma did that too.
