Baconnaise, Bacon Vodka, and Bacon-flavored…ice cream? Bacon tops the list of food trends for 2010 according to advertising agency J. Walter Thompson, whose clients include some of the leading food retailers and manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad.
The list, in descending order:
1. Bacon. Bacon in vodka, bacon in salt, bacon-and-egg ice cream – you name it, bacon is a food trend for 2010.
2. Organic fast food. More fast food stores will be adding organic foods to their choices. Panera already uses Bell and Evans chicken in their stores – will McDonalds go Whole Foods on us?
3. Wine cocktails. That’s not new – that’s retro. Retro 1990s, though. Wine spritzers = wine coolers. What’s next? Zima and pegged pants while we all Walk the Dinosaur?
4. Health claim questions. Do we really need omega-3 oil in our Cheetos? Red Bull with added vitamin D? What’s next?
5. Sardines = hip. Seriously? So the dad on Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs is the coolz?
Food trends for 2010 look, well, bleak. We’ve jumped the shark when SweetRiot makes a bacon-flavored chocolate bar.

Now I have heard of apples soaking in rum, even cherries soaking in bourbon but bacon soaking in vodka? To be honest I love bacon for breakfast but the first time I saw this bacon vodka I almost puked just like Matty did while taking a shot. There’s something about bacon in vodka that just doesn’t seem right. I guess you can mix anything with alcohol.
