Mirror, mirror on the wall, is the edible bacon fat candle not the best candle of them all?

Jul 30, 2012 7:35 PM

Ok, I'm gonna go ahead and just assume that we all like bacon around here. If you don't like bacon, it's time to stop that nonsense and realize that you do actually like bacon. Then, go check out this edible bacon fat candle.

So, I tried, but I just couldn't find anything that I didn't like about this candle. Let's run through this together, shall we?
1. You can use it as a candle. (always good to have on hand in case the electricity fails)
2. It smells like bacon.
3. It tastes like bacon, and you can eat it. (I probably should have separated that into 2 points, but I figured people would probably be eating it if they were tasting it and not just licking it).
4. You can pour it on your food. (I'm beginning to think this might be the ultimate survival tool..fire for heat/warmth/cooking fuel, food, light source)
5. Did I mention that you can eat it? And it's a candle? And it's made of bacon fat, so it smells like bacon?

Thoughts?

I understand that bacon is delicious. I understand that this is also a candle... but What the Buck? Why would you want to make your home smell like bacon?

I guess I don't understand the obsession of recent years.

I guess the main detriment to using this as a survival item, is that you won't be able to keep it around until an emergency. You know you won't. I know you won't, so just admit it now. You will burn it, or eat it, or, as I understand it, burn it AND eat it.

A bacon candle sounds like a Boy Scout sort of project.

Does it splatter when it's lit, like bacon cooking? That could be a deal-breaker.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
