Perhaps taking advantage of the whole bacon = cocaine thing, a restaurant in New York has unleashed what may simultaneously be the worst and best idea in the history of food: bacon donuts.

Yes, two of the essential food groups have been combined into a dessert at NYC’s Wildwood BBQ, where last Friday Chef “Big Lou” Elrose added a new offering — glazed cinnamon donuts bedazzled (bacon-dazzled?) with bits of candied bacon.

In the interest of science, I intend on testing these thoroughly before declaring yea or nay.
