Ok, so I love me some alcohol and I love me some pork. But a Pork Martini? Who'da thunk it?
"The pork Martini serves many needs on many levels!" exclaimed Josh Karpf in his introduction to his search for the perfect pork martini. Such an illustrious quest involved soaking sweet dried pork, pan-sautéed ground pork, boiled sweet Italian dinner sausage, and sautéed Spam in separate glasses of 100-proof Absolut vodka for up to two weeks.

We don't know a lot of vegetarians that have a sense of humor (about eating meat, that is). But they're out there somewhere. I can smell them. There are a lot of vegetable product manufacturers, however, that know humor sells. The Campbell's Soup Company comes to mind immediately (you know... "I could have had a V8!"). And what a coincidence! We just so happen to have an ad from Campbell's Japanese partner Kogome Company, LTD. Guess what they make? Vegetable juice. What are the odds?
We were truly touched when we came across this story in our meat travels across the web. A very unselfish girl decided to give her friend the best gift of all...MEAT! She hand-crafted a bra made entirely out of BACON! Not stopping there, she then modeled the bra for all the world to see. He may be the luckiest man alive! She is a true friend. You'll be happy to know that the bacon did not go to waste. They later fried up the bra and ate it. Bacon really is the gift that keeps on giving!
