Mmm, Bacon Caramel

Everybody loves bacon, and everybody loves caramel, right? So why not combine the two? That's what these guys have done, and have created what could be the most savory sweet possible, Bacon Caramel!

From: http://visualrecipes.com/recipe-details/recipe_id/336/Bacon-Caramel/

Bacon caramel like a chewy SKOR Bar with bacon. How much more of a comforting flavour combination could there ever be? To do this, you'll need a couple of things beforehand, namely a pyrex dish or a couple of deep cookie sheets. You'll also need a candy thermometer and a silicone spatula, which is great for keeping the crevices of your saucepan from solidifying.

World's Largest Pasta, 7876 lb's!

What do you do when you've got literally a spare truckload of Pasta and a whole heap of spare time? Make the World's Largest Pasta of course! These guys made one, and made it big. 7876 lb's to be exact. And if the spectacle of organizing this huge feat wasn't enough, someone decided to get married... in it... yes, in the pasta. Don't ask, I've got no idea why either...

Big Mama & Papa's 36" Pizza, Burbank, CA
The guys from I-Mockery.com show off a Big Mama's Pizza, known for being the largest pizza in the country. A whopping 36 inch pie! You have to turn it sideways to fit it through your door. In fact, the pizzeria build a special "slot" in front of their building to slide the giant pizza boxes through since they don't fit through a standard sized doorway.

Apparently New Yorkers have an expensive appetite! Following hot on the heels of the DB Bistro Moderne's $99 Burger , comes a $1000 Pizza from Nino's Bellissima Pizza. Yes. 1 Pizza. $1000. Hard to believe? Well apparently this pizza contains such expensive things as creme fraiche, caviar, lobster, and a little wasabi. As for sales so far, celebrity ex-cop Bo Dietl has already had one.

Forget traditional cheese and pizza sauce, the record-priced pie will be topped with creme fraiche, chives, eight ounces of four different kinds of Petrossian caviar, four ounces of thinly sliced Maine lobster tail, salmon roe, and a little bit of spice with wasabi.
