the bacon explosion

Take Bacon. Add Sausage. Blog.
By DAMON DARLIN
FOR a nation seeking unity, a recipe has swept the Internet that seems to unite conservatives and liberals, gun owners and foodies, carnivores and ... well, not vegetarians and health fanatics. Certainly not the vegetarians and health fanatics.

Now if that's not true love, I don't know what is.
