Drew Carey and Blackmarket Bacon Dogs

Drew Carey is downtown talking with bacon-wrapped hot dog peddler Elizabeth Palacios, the woman who spent 45 days in jail for selling bacon. The most shocking thing in this video isn't all the toppings people put on these gut bombs, but watching a sale happen, and later, the health department dumping everything, including the cart, in the trash. Palacios puts herself in harm's way, she says, because if she didn't sell the bacon, she wouldn't make any money at all: "They just want the bacon." Delicious, salty, fatty, amazing bacon.

We have become a police state. This has nothing to do with public safety, but rather the revenue created by tickets and court cost.

We have way too many bureaucrats. Filthy, worthless, degenerate, subhuman, parasitic bureaucrats. There is an overpopulation of them, and their herd is in dire need of thinning.

The video was interesting, but, it was a little slanted, I think. The health department guy was trying to explain things but I think the editor did not put his message out as well as the charming vendor (I’d buy a dog from her!). As entertainment it was ok.

As I was watching, I could not help but recall all the articles about sharia funding and under-the-radar halal enforcement.

You can sell hot dogs from the old style carts, with onions and chili and so forth (lots of jalapeños in the video) but to sell bacon dogs you need a special $26,000 cart?

Any time you buy street food, you must consider where and when the vendor washes up. Regular hot dogs, Kosher beef dogs, bacon dogs, tacos, the hygiene issues are the same without focusing on bacon.

All things in moderation including moderation, so if you want a bacon dog once in a while, I doubt that alone will kill you.

In other words, same as cigarette taxes.

Isn’t that wonderful. It just warms my heart to know we’re paying some specialized desk jockey to make life harder than it has to be. </sarc>

‘Gut bombs’? That’s a White Castle burger. Depending on how they’re prepared franks are correctly called: ‘dirty water dogs’, or ‘tube steaks’.
