602910 Wed Mar 11 11:27:39 -0700 2009 10 21 The Best 0 4494769 I live in Brooklyn and work in Manhattan; anybody know where to find bacon ice cream in either borough? I've never tried it, but a fleeting mention in a recent article triggered a craving. I expect to be enamored...or disgusted. Wed Mar 11 11:27:39 -0700 2009 121827 Jessca 1 4494989 Is there a particular country or region that it originates from? If you know, that may help. Wed Mar 11 12:19:11 -0700 2009 4494769 213669 silencespeak 2 4495358 I believe it's just the product of bacon's recent (overdone) trendiness here in the States. But maybe not. Wed Mar 11 13:55:53 -0700 2009 4494989 121827 Jessca 3 4496091 Maybe it's only available in restaurants?

Actually - - it was gross. I have a feeling that may be true of the ice cream you describe. People fetish over bacon (and I can see why) but it is not as flexible a food as you think. That said, I have never seen Bacon ice-cream, but I bet if you google it you can find it. Locally? Probably a small batch parlor.

I'm afraid it's one of those things you have to try to make for yourself. http://www.davidlebovitz.com/archives/2008/03/candied_bacon_i_1.html Thu Mar 12 06:54:02 -0700 2009 4494769 68363 JungMann 2 4510362 When I was at the chocolate show there was a chocletier down on Essex street, I believe near or in the Essex Street Market. She made chocolate covered bacon, that might be a substitute for ya. Someone I work with said they tried it and loved it.
