99 . . . Porkus
I know it’s all trendy to like bacon these days, but when the majority of your nationality’s dishes consist of some kind of pork product, it’s hard not to have had a passion for bacon all your life (note the photo for “Appetizers” in the wikipedia article. Is there any actual meat in that bacon or is it just a slab of fat?). Having said that, I don’t actually eat bacon that often, and usually opt for sausage as a side if I go out for breakfast (picky about bacon). Last week however, my friend Maya invited me along with a few of her friends to a three-course bacon meal. The day of the big meal Maya and I wrote a few bacon haikus. Here they are:
Pre-Bacon Haikus
Bacon, thick and crisp
Artery-clogging goodness
My reason to live
-Maya
Oh happy piglet
Sorry you are so tasty
Get in my belly
-Ramune
Post-Bacon Haikus
Oh bacon coma
Delectable salty dreams
Please pass the water
-Maya
Lifespan cut in half
No need to find a job now
Thanks tasty piglet
-Ramune
