On the Menu at This Year’s Birthday Party

Jars of President's Choice bacon marmalade

I saw the items above and below at the grocery store yesterday and decided “Yes…these shall definitely be on the menu at my birthday party!”

I picked up a jar of bacon marmalade and will try it out in a couple of different ways, both as a glaze for meat as well as spread on toast. I’ll report my findings here.

I am now a member of an upstart movement to take down the greedy corrupt establishment."
