Is This What Happened to Rome?

Last week I encountered a food item that gave even a grease-and-meat-lover pause: The Bacon Explosion. Someone asked a barbeque chef to create a specialty item featuring bacon. The result might be equated to a sushi roll made up of bacon and Italian sausage and thrown on the grill/smoker for two or three hours. I wonder how many folks are going to end up having heart attacks, artherosclerosis, or salmonella from attempting to recreate this...food. Wow.
