Odd pairings sometimes work… and sometimes they don’t.  Case in point…  The other day while perusing the gourmet food section of my local World Market store, I found myself staring face to face with a Mo’s Bacon Bar by Vosges.  In a nutshell a Mo’s Bacon Bar is an apple wood smoked bacon and milk chocolate candy bar.

A few thoughts flashed through my mind as the bacon bar stared me down — should I run through the store like a little girl flailing my arms about, screaming that there are pig parts in a chocolate bar — or, should I man up and spend $7 on a chocolate bar… with pig parts in it… and is probably not kosher — and lastly, if a Canadian Goose could speak like a human, would it speak French or English?  I opted to not buy the Mo’s Bacon Bar, as $7 for a 3 ounce bar of chocolate is a bit spendy — but I am considering it.  I think I’ll continue to mull over the Canadian Goose issue for now.  Maybe it would be English with a French accent.

$7.50 – Buy from Vosges
