Juicy new treat: bacon sundae

Yes, I eat healthy foods. Yes, I know it's good for me to do so. No, I'm not a junk food junkie. But bacon sundae? I'm there.

Burger King is introducing this sweet-and-savory beast of a dessert item, and I can totally see the benefit: it's all taste buds.

It's vanilla soft serve ice cream topped with fudge and caramel. But they don't stop there. No, they add bacon crumbles (so it's sort of healthy, like a salad with Bacon Bits). But they don't stop there, either. You get a full-on strip of bacon to go with it. (You can dip the bacon in the sundae, as if the bacon is a cookie, if you want; or, you can just crunch it plain.)

I'm down with the fact that it's 510 calories in all. That doesn't bother me, nor does the fat content of 18 grams or the sugar content of 61 grams. In fact, nothing bothers me about this dessert at all. (For the record, I like Bacon Chocolate, too.)

The company swears that they're pulling this in their menu until September 3. Until then, it's full speed ahead into bacony sundae goodness.
