Overseas Adventures

As promised, the Crazy Team are hunting for new tastes to add to the web-shop, including the long-promised Black Lemon. My travels have taken me to the Middle-East, places where Bacon is banned - Aaagh!

How do you survive in a country where there's no bacon, ham, pork? And where some of the local food tastes like **** to Westerners? The answer is in BaconSalt (not "Bacon Salt"!) I took a supply with me, and no worries about getting grabbed by the Airport Customs for "smuggling Bacon", as BaconSalt contains no Bacon (and not too much Salt), but it makes the unfamiliar grub taste acceptable - Gooood.

I'll be back at the shop soon, with new additions to the range (Oh, what I go through for you guys) and Amanda is faithfully keeping the orders going out while I've been away (and that is going to cost me on my return - there has been mention of a weekend trip to Liverpool - errrr?)

Sales Coming In

Sales orders starting to come through now . . . .

One was for a lass who works in Saudi Arabia - as I know from sad personal experience, a place where all forms of pig-meat are banned, and the Western Expat population are desperate enough to travel to Bahrain to get their "weekend breakfast fix"! She was on holiday at home in Scotland when she heard about BaconSalt being available in UK and ordered eight bottles to take back with her!

I've done "mock pork barbecues" in Saudi, with veal chops marinaded in pork stock cubes, but I bet with BaconSalt sprinkled over, veal will be even better. Might give the "Turkey Bacon" a lot more flavour too!

Meanwhile, I tried Dave Lefkow's (the originator of Bacon Salt) father's favourite - BaconSalt on Ice Cream - Just on one corner - I didn't think that one did it for me until I got to a bit where there was just a hint of BaconSalt, and that was certainly something I'll check out again. (At the moment I've run out of Ice Cream :(
