1. RMc and His Roster of Rubbish Posted: March 15, 2013 at 05:35 AM (#4388778)Is that pronounced BAY-co or BAH-co?
The second-place finisher was The Bad Joke, a corn dog covered in cheese with two strips of duck bacon on a bun.
Saints preserve us!
Don't like needles.
I would assume they have two nesting taco shell-shaped heated molds, which the bacon cooks in. That's how I woudl do it anyway. Same idea as the molds you can get to make crisp taco salad bowls from soft flour tortillas.

They should put you in charge of the grill. Did you look at the picture of that thing?
Yeah, see #6. I guess I just assumed they didn't leave it in the mold long enough, but you're probably right - that bacon looks pretty much raw.
Apparently, that is the only thing they haven't tried. Here are the candidates from the 2011 poll.
Some highlights:
We save that for dessert.
My favorite was the Hebrew National Hot Dog wrapped in bacon. I gotta think you have to sign a waiver or something.
Also, some better pictures, here.
I'm in the massive minority, in that I'm not a crisp bacon fan(probably having to do with my mom thinking that bacon isn't completely cooked until it's capable of breaking into a fine powder with the first bite) and love me some slightly cooked bacon(microwave was the best thing to happen to bacon) but for a taco shell, you are going to have to have crisp bacon.
Have to agree, these food ideas sound awesome. I'm thinking some of the people on here think food should be flavorless, bland, boring and healthy... I mean, I'm sure they eat salad without salad dressing, meats, eggs etc.(and of course a touch of lettuce, after all, it's a salad) :)
As a Michigan native who lived in SoCal for 25 years, I can state authoritatively that the numbers of healthy skinny types in California is vastly overestimated. For every emaciated Hollywood fitness nut there are 10 people who live on tacos, burritos, pizza, Big Macs, Carl's Jr. and In n' Out Burger. I can't speak to the east coast but I suspect it is the same.
There are 12 states in the U.S. with an obesity rate over 30%: Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and South Carolina. Mississippi had the highest rate of obesity at 34.9 percent, while Colorado had the lowest rate at 20.7 percent. Twenty-six of the 30 states with the highest obesity rates are in the Midwest and South. The states with the lowest obesity rates are California, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Montana, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, and DC.
Hey, I could like one of those bacon tacos, as long as the bacon was crisp.
As per the US Government, the same people who brought you "leading economic indicators," "jobs created," the "consumer price index," and the "food pyramid." All of which are a joke.
I don't deny there are more heavy people in Michigan than in many places. But to suggest Californians are "thin" is to depart from reality.
Sounds good, except the most obese part of the country is the deep south, not the rust belt. Michigan is more than the Detroit metro area, as hard as that is for most people to understand.
America, #### YEAH?
p.s. i am not a crank

I'm originally from Michigan and live in California. I visit Michigan every year. The "people" of Michigan look like they eat two Californians for breakfast every morning. I'm 6'1", 165 and am looked at like I must have just finished my third cycle of chemo. The differences cannot be missed.
Oh and your distrust of a simple obesity statistic is fun. You dropped your tin foil hat.
The projections also tend to be awe-inspring. There will be no underweight people in the South by 2030, for example.
Unfair! I'm going to a dinner party in Newport Beach tonight. I'm a man of the people.
But yes, we do have Mexicans. That's why we are behind Colorado.
I eat #2 on that list almost every day.
The white people in Fontana are plenty fat too. California coastal types don't seem to realize that most of their beloved state looks a lot like the rest of the country. Fresno or Stockton or Oakland for instance.
The dockworkers in Oakland are going to be surprised to learn that they're not coastal. The hipsters in Oakland are going to be pissed that they now have to go buy a bunch of fat jeans.
You do realize that the large majority of the population in California is coastal, right?
As per "maps" from the U.S. government, the same people who brought you the "man on the moon" and "fluoridation."
Somebody decided that whatever the "average" was in the halcyon days of the past is what is "ideal," and then declared a whole crapload of people who are perfectly healthy weights as "overweight." When more and more studies come out that suggest this is inaccurate and that the relationship between body weight and health is extremely complicated, epic tantrums are thrown. Science at its very finest.
Count me apart of the "does not look appetizing" group. Probably better tasting than the high-fiber, low carb tortillas I've been using though.
I meant "coastal" as more of Malibu/San Fran/Santa Barbara state of mind, which most people who live in CA in the "un-coastal" areas realize. Fontana is a world apart from Huntington or Manhattan Beach. Santa Ana is 5 miles from Newport Beach. The two cities have about as much common as say Chicago and Topeka, which are both "midwestern."
As to the obesity measure, thank you Voros for pointing out that it is seriously flawed.
