If You Like Bacon, Read This
Bizarre Bacon Products
Bacon. Everything tastes better with bacon. Bacon can be prepared for any meal or occasion. Bacon is scientifically proven to cure hangovers. Epic Meal Time has proven bacon is its own food group. Lady Gaga has proven bacon is a fashion accessory. Former vegans and vegetarians often cite bacon for their carnivorous conversions. Bacon is sweet. Bacon is salty. Bacon is succulent. Bacon is delicious.
Bacon also enjoys a cult-like following and is the demigod of tastefully perverted fan adoration and fanaticism. Everyone loves bacon, however some bacon worshipers have taken things to the next level. You’d be surprised by the amazing amount of ridiculous bacon products that exist, which is why we’ve rounded up a selection of “all things bacon” and compiled the below list!
Bacon Air Freshener
Nothing beats the scent of bacon in the morning! Well… napalm… but that’s another story.
Eliminate car odors and hang this on your front mirror. Sure beats “fresh breeze” scent or fuzzy dice!
Bacon Flavored Coke
Who needs Diet Coke with cherry or lime when you can get your sugar free fix with bacon?
Burger King’s Bacon Sundae
Burger King really wants you to have it your way.
This summer 2012, they rolled out a sundae with vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge, caramel, and smoked bacon.
Bacon Mayonnaise
Regular mayonnaise just doesn’t cut it anymore these days.
The perfect addition to any BLT or club sandwich.
Bacon Chocolate Bar
Candy bar overkill!
For just over $7, you can feast on this designer candy bar and savor the flavors of bacon dipped in chocolate.
Cheap alternative: eat a Hershey bar and a strip of bacon at the same time.
Bacon Soap
Ever work in a greasy restaurant and come out smelling like the contents of the kitchen?
Most people don’t like that smell, however if that’s your style, this is your soap!
Bacon Lollipops
AKA “man bait.” Women, take note.
Also, just imagine how confused and overjoyed kids would be getting these maple syrup and bacon lollipops in their Halloween baskets!
Bacon Vodka
It’s like doing shots of bacon grease, except not really!
The Baltimore Sun describes Bakon Vodka as having a “robust, meaty aroma that pleased the palate, grounded by a sharp undercurrent of liquor.”
Shots? Anyone?
Bacon Toilet Paper
What goes in must come out. You can still smell glorious after wiping off with bacon toilet paper.
Why? Cuz pooping doesn’t have to be all business.
Bacon Flavored Mints
Need to freshen up your breath before a hot date? Unless your date likes the scent of swine, you probably not want these mints.
They taste like crispy bacon with a hint of mint.
Bacon Frosting
Tired of good ole Betty Crocker boxed cake mixes and the local bakery’s assortment?
Change things up and “eat… like… a pig” at your next birthday!
Bacon Toothpaste
After eating all of the above bacon products, you’ll probably need to brush your teeth.
Mint flavor? What’s that? Bacon, baby!
Bacon Floss
If you’re one of those people who only flosses before a dentist appointment, consider picking up some bacon floss.
You’ll probably start flossing twice a day on a regular basis.

- Atmosphere: Ultrabar is a larger multi-level nightclub appealing largely to the 18-30 crowd. It’s laid out to maximize dancefloor space for those who really like to dance and party, and it definitely gets wild. Boasting 6 bars, 4 dancefloors, 2 mezzanines, and 30+ VIP tables, Ultrabar really sets the standard for Nightclubs in DC.
Venue Overview
Ultrabar is an interesting character. The building itself used to be a bank at the turn of the 20th century, and has retained some of the original bank aspects. Ornate marble accents the bar area wall on the main floor, safe deposit boxes are illuminated behind colored glass in the basement vault (which is now a lounge level), true hardwood floors run throughout the club, and the original trim work and masonry has been fully restored but given a colorful paint job.
Combined with the modern LED lighting, Stainless steel accents, Marble bartops, Glass walls, and modern decor, it makes for an upscale, clean, and inviting atmosphere.
But don’t let that fool you, this place really gets down. Each floor has its own music format, a talented DJ on the decks, and a big bar to boot. And of course, each floor features all the insane lights and pounding sound that you’d expect to see in a club like this. Each floor also has its own VIP section where private tables can be booked. The main floor additionally has two overlooking mezzanines with bars so you can have your drink and look down at the dancing people below.

The Most Expensive Champagne in the World
In the spirit of tonight’s ‘Champagne Wars’ at Barcode we thought we’d take a look at some of the most expensive champagne in the world. To give you an idea, Cristal is most popularly the most expensive bottle of champagne sold at clubs in DC, like Ultrabar and sold for an average of $600 ($250-$300 retail). But, that’s pennies because once you see what big time ballers spend of their bubbly, our $30 bottle of champagne at Barcode Tuesday nights never looked so good!
Cristal Brut 1990 “Methuselah”
$17,625
In 2005, at the high society auction house Sotheby’s in New York, a six-liter Crisal Brut gold-labeled bottle of champagne (1990), was sold to an anonymous Richie Rich.
Dom Perignon White Gold Jeroboam
$40,000
Also in 2005, Dom Perignon made topped the charts at the world’s most expensive bubbly. These three-liter limited edition bottles made of white gold and dubbed the Dom Perignon White Gold Jeroboam were sold for a New Years celebration.
Pernod-Ricard Perrier-Jouet
$50,000
Not only do you get a set of 12 bottles (100 sets sold total) you have to travel to Eastern France and personalize a flavor of liqueur. The elite from all over the world have purchased their set which includes storage for your champagne to age for eight months. Sounds like a lot of work for a glass of champs.
Shipwrecked 1907 Heidsieck
$275,000
In 1916, the Russian Imperial family was expecting a shipment of their favorite champagne from the Heidsieck vineyard in Champagne, France. En route, the shipwreck off the coast of Finland caused the bottles to be lost at sea for over 80 years, until divers discovered over 200 bottles in 1997. Now the pricey bottles are sold to guests at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Moscow.

Barcode Brings Champagne Wars: Tues 08.21.12
Tuesday, August 21, 2012 brings a very special edition of Barcode Tuesdays.
Bottles of house Champagne will be just $30, or if you’re looking to really celebrate grab a bottle of Stoli and Moet for $200. So get your closest friends or random acquaintances and pop some bottles! Hookahs are available on the open-air patio to compliment the night and with a kitchen open until midnight no one will go hungry.
The Floral Girly Trend… for Grown-Ups
Unleash Your Inner Flower Child
Contributing Writer Amanda Hanowitz
As ladies, I’m sure you grew up with a keen eye and liking for all things floral. If you were anything like me, your girly stage took a turn for the worse and Mom found you on the floor taking scissors to every floral piece you’d ever owned. If you’re on top of what’s new (or have class), your girly flare may (should have) done a 360.
Let’s face it, all guys really want to see is you in a tight black dress. Well… sucks for them because you’ve got style. Let’s focus on ourselves and unleashing our inner children with the help of the floral girly trend.
A look that may be familiar to you is the ever popular floral crown. Or what we shall call, for all intensive purposes, the “I rock flowers on my head, but don’t call me a flower head” look.
This flower crown is oh so trendy, adds interest to your gorgeous locks and can be made at home! All you need is some ribbon and a garden. Or some fake flowers and a glue gun, whatever floats your boat.
(From Free People: floral head band, fiona halo, braid halo, mulberry rose crown)
Not into putting shit in your hair? No problem, how about putting shit on your legs? Just kidding, we mean rocking the floral trend on your pants instead of your head!
Try some floral skinny jeans in a bright hue or regular jean. This will instantly add interest to your lower half so you needn’t overdo the top. Keep it simple and wear a plain top to accentuate your fab flowers.
(From Free People: floral ankle crop, denim cutoff)
Flowers are awesome but don’t deck out your whole bod. Keep this trend simple and sport it on one section of your body at a time.
Wanna be hardcore? Rock the skinny jeans and the crown all at once, but do not, I repeat, do not rock flowers on every crevice of your body. Then people will call you a flower head, but this time with the word crack as an antecedent. (translation for dummies: crackhead).
In conclusion, revert yourselves back to the good old days when mommy picked out your outfit and at least one aspect of said outfit was clad in flowers.
Be a chill flower child, unleash your inner girly flower girl.
