Pigging Out @ Cheesesteak Shop

Time for another bacon foodie adventure. It happens randomly, and when my boss says, "lunch is on the company today" I jump for joy and am out-voted for my food choices because I am the only girl in the office. Not a big deal, The Cheese Steak Shop sounds good. I've had only one philly cheesesteak before in my life before and that was IN Philadelphia. I was on the rowing team and we made it to the rowing mecca of the world for the best race of my life. After we ran up the Rocky stairs we went to where he ate to be real Rocky champs. Please pause while I take a trip down memory lane....
Ahh that felt good. Anyways The Cheese Steak Shop in Walnut Creek had NO idea I would judge their Bacon & Cheese Steak Sandwich. (I just noticed I always capitalize Bacon and any Food I'm talking about, very respectful) Anyways, hold the onions and peppers, I don't need 'em. Just Bacon, Cheese and Steak. Om nom nom. I got the 10 incher.
Oh and leave room for some curly and steak fries. Gotta try it all! Like I said earlier.. Om nom nom, it was delicious and heavy and the bacon was up to par. Steak was delish and if ever we get lunch paid for again, I wouldn't mind the Cheese Steak Shop. Delish.

Pigging Out @ Jack in the Box

So we all know that Jack in the Box has brought the "Marry Bacon" craze ever since the Super Bowl. Which has seemed to blow up Bacon Mania in the US. Besides the bacon shake (which I still haven't tried), the BIG deal is the BLT Cheeseburger. This burger ties together two of my favorite meals, BLT and Cheese. It couldn't get better, welllll we will have to see about that. The first shot is of me taking it out of the wrapper... Pretty unassuming fast food burger.
Oh THERE is where all the ingredients are hiding.

Let's take a few bites...Ok first I need to point out the pickles... PICKLES?!? I don't hear a P in BLT. I was very offended that there were pickles in this BLT cheeseburger. I didn't even know I had to ask for none, strike one. Now is when I feel like a dummy, Jack in the Box got "creative" when in fact they threw another name on a Bacon Cheeseburger to get Bacon fanatics like me to try the food. What is different about this Burger than any other Bacon Burger? No Ketchup/ Mustard. YUP!! That's the ONLY difference. BLT Cheeseburger my butt... I could have gotten a much better quality bacon cheeseburger with the same ingredients and Chilis/Applebees. Plus a margarita which would make it SOO much better.

I would say C- for effort and C+ for taste. (Get the pickles OUT OF THERE!)

Bacon Bacon SF

I am still amazed that this food truck exists. Bacon, Bacon, and more BACON!!! For the website and more information follow this link: BACONBACONSF Otherwise please stay here and follow me on my blogging journey. I heard that it was making an appearance at Off The Grid UN Plaza and I practically ran over to try some. What else would I get? The bacon bouquet... 5 pieces of bacon wrapped up and so delicious. Take a gander for yourself.... I like to think of myself as a bacon connoisseur. That being said, this was by far #1. Perfectly crisp and chewy. Packed with flavor. I couldn't be more happy to eat just bacon for lunch. Honestly, I couldn't get enough of it.

The following day I was discussing the truck with a friend who had also dined there. We came up with a few facts of why it is just so amazing and how bacon bacon sf has changed us, America, and the world.


We were both on a roll.. It goes on but I'll spare you my real explanation for Beatlemania and the British Invasion. I'm so glad people understand me... It makes this all worth it that others share the joy in the simple things in life. Bacon.
