As both an English major and self-proclaimed foodie, I believe I've read some of the best food writing in lines of poetry. One of my favorites is Li-Young Lee's "Persimmons": http://poetryfoundation.org/archive/poem.html?id=171753.
I just stumbled onto Daniel Hall's "Mangosteens" and am still looking for an online-text version. Anyone else have favorite food poems? Or even bits of food writing that sing like poetry?

Thanks to everyone who commented, and tune in again later today and throughout New Year's Day for a contest each day.
Crispy, but not so much that it breaks apart when you bite it and before it all gets in your mouth. Also, bacon wrapped around ANYTHING is the best!
Crispy is divine!
I like it pliant because most people get it too crispy.
Crispy, but not black. Makes the house smell delicious.
um, any way you cook it! No seriously, prefer chewy. :) LOVE BACON!
