J&D’s Bacon Lube is, unfortunately, very real

November 29th, 2011 | 3 Comments

And so it was, 2.5 years ago when the world was at the height of its almost irritating obsession with bacon when someone emailed me the apparent existence of a product – J&D’s Bacon Lube. Known for their oddball bacon products like Bacon Salt, Bacon Mayonnaise and various other bacon-related foods (but no actual bacon) it appeared as though J&D Foods was moving into the adult lubricant market. My general reaction was something like “WHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY” … Read entire article »

Urban Foraging in Baltimore: or, Hey this Superfundberry tastes great!

June 7th, 2011 | 6 Comments

Laura Vozzella ran a piece in the Baltimore Sun yesterday regarding the seemingly on-the-rise concept of Urban Foraging, which essentially amounts to picking things up off the ground and eating them: By gathering food in a city public park, Stauss not only trims her grocery bill but also takes part in one of the more surprising offshoots of the local-foods movement: urban foraging.

Bros Icing Bros has (d)evolved!

June 24th, 2010 | 3 Comments

(props to spamspam for the heads up) Ah yes, the highly obnoxious and destructive internet sensation known as Bros Icing Bros. A fine prank to pull on your fellow bros, but it lacks the additional benefit of a ridiculous sexual secondary joke. Well, to fill that gap we now have Dudes BJ’ing Dudes, a method of forcing your friends to drink crappy Bartles and James flavors while simultaneously working a gay joke into the mix. Hilarious. Will this iteration of the “forcing your friends to drink gross shit” prank catch on? Who knows!

AND THANK YOU. FOR … Read entire article »
