Bacon Bra
"Wait, men love bacon and boobs, why not combine the two? That's a million dollar idea right there!" —bkusler
Still no confirmation if it's turkey or piggy bacon, but even the kosher chick might make an exception for a bra made of bacon (NSFW). Given the raw state, sunbathing seems like the ideal frying method. Victoria's Secret—nudge, nudge—you need to get on this, though it does seem pretty DIY-friendly. NSFW photographic evidence after the jump. [via Found Shit]

erin - If you read some of the comments on the "hottest new accessory" post you've linked to, you'll see that your readers don't particularly enjoy seeing objectified female bodies covered in raw meat on a site that purports to be about eating. this "chick" finds the metaphor offensive and in very bad taste.

Well, I'm a chick, and I think it's Hilarious. Bring on the Bacon!

Very very funny. This girl might reward her fiance with a bacon bra.

This is great... and as a female, I don't find this offensive in the least bit... it's just someone having fun with friends.

I found this hysterical, wondered aloud what volume of bacon it would take to hold up my boobs, and promptly forwarded it to my favorite chef pal (a guy).
Just one request: next time please make a pair of bacon boxers and put 'em on George Clooney (not one of those hairless swimmer bods)! Thanks for listening. :-)

i agree with sabrina. poor choice.
iliana at 11:22PM on 04/02/08
sabrina and ilana: you need to chill out! This is funny!

political correctness aside, I would think it would feel nasty, but I bet her significant other loves it ;)

Haha has anyone seen the sketch from The State about bacon? The guy ends up wearing a dress made out of bacon and he sings a song that I still sing every time I eat a piece of bacon:
Bacon bacon bacon I'm putting the moves on youuuu!

Funny.This could be a persuasive way to entice my boyfriend to take me to brunch this weekend.

You know what, I'm not offended by the bacon bra as such - however I got quite quite irritated at the completely sexist way it was described. I mean, there's totally a difference between presenting this story a bit more neutrally like: "hey kids, this crazy woman is wearing a bacon bra/tshirt/funny hat - HIGH-larious/ew!"
versus (and I am paraphrasing liberally "out of context" here)
"People (and by people we mean men)!: We love women AND boobs, so here's a great idea to make money AND objectify women. Woots! Women, even you crazy kosher chicks, think about getting one of these to please your man (because that's what you're here for obviously)". That's pretty much the gist I got. And yes, of course, if you don't like it, you've got no sense of humour. That's what they all say. I got that this is supposed to be funny/weird, but what's with the sexist commentary? Hmm?
Would you ever, ever see a description of say, men's bacon briefs in the same way? I think not.
This is definitely a low point for serious eats.

I am deeply offended by the way this post is objectifying bacon. You are treating bacon as nothing more than a piece of meat.
So Good at 2:25PM on 04/03/08
That's because most people (and by people we mean women) would much rather see a man in chocolate briefs, not bacon...
I think it's funny. But it would be even funnier if the bra were made from cooked bacon -- sort of molded? It would remind me of one of those ultra rigid torpedo-like bras from the 40s... and the excited male could eat it up without removing it for cooking first...
LoCo at 3:15PM on 04/03/08
@So Good - I think you're my hero.
The other has been asking for a bacon bra as long as we've been together. I'm just disappointed someone got to it before we did.

Three things have been running through my mind since I saw this. First, naturally, was Gordie's incident last year where he came close to toasting his nuggets. If only he had been wearing bacon briefs!
Second is that the design could be made more appealing. The lines are not as good as they could be.
Third, a quote from GS Albee:
Zee always went naked in the house, except for the brassiere she wore when it was her turn to get dinner. Once, cooking French-fried potatoes in a kettle of boiling fat, she had come within an inch of crisping her most striking features.
A broccoli floret bra would be rather cute, too, made with the right lines of course.

Pizza, pork, and pearls?
If only they had taken the time to make a Hershey's Kiss necklace. :(

So Good - Hahahahah thank you! As a woman I do not find it offensive, c'mon girls, it's funny!
Chau at 9:23PM on 04/05/08
As a guy who likes both bacon and boobs, this seems a little "ew" to me. The bacon is raw, after all, which screams 'bacteria' and 'food poisoning'. Not what I want associated with food or boobs at all.
neuroid at 11:40PM on 04/07/08
Oh, please, y'all... it's just plain silly and hilarious.
I'm as ardent a feminist as you'll find on the planet, and I TOTALLY embrace my love of bacon, bawdiness and "bwah-hah-hah" (which are pretty much the three things this photo celebrates).

I think Sabrina needs to get her panties out of the wad they're in. I'm a female, a 'chick' if you will, and I love the picture and get the humor. I also enjoy the site for the eats but come on, funny is funny. Too much seriousness will cause your head to explode Sabrina.
psweet at 7:26PM on 04/14/08
Certainly gives new meaning to "burning your bra" !!!!

Sabrina,
Most of the women I know - love giving sensual, sexual, fantasial pleasure to the men they adore. That's part of the joy for them in being in a relationship. That's part of the joy of being the feminine joy to the man in their life.
It's OK that you take offense. But, it makes me sad. I am sad for you if you do not have a relationship with a man in which you delight in delighting him. I am sad for you if you do not have a relationship in which you both delight in delighting the other - using your specific feminine and masculine souls - delighting the specific masculine and feminine spirit of the other.

Michael-
You are completely heteronormative, as is the rest of this post. I am disgusted still, 4 months later.

Sabrina,
You need to get over it! Its a joke..and if its not, you don't have to chew it, just swallow it and take it like a champ!
That's my girl, I knew you could do it !
ONEBULLET at 3:28PM on 11/03/08
forget objectifying women...this is just dumb - the bacon is raw!
I'd be happy to wear a fully cooked bacon bra. Now that would fulfill a few fantasies.
meggs at 6:12PM on 04/03/09
I agree -- the bacon should be molded and cooked, then it could be eaten. I'm thinking kind of like that basket weave bacon thingy I saw not too long ago...
mkmarl01 at 10:42AM on 04/22/09
You know, it's okay for feminists to have a sense of humor. I'm a "chick" and I think this is funny - it's silly and that makes me laugh.
