New iPhone and iPod Bacon Apps Are Sizzling!

That's it... I'm turning in my cell phone (that is so low rent it only makes phone calls and sends texts - ghetto!) and getting myself a shiny, new grill. Ahem... I mean... Um... Actually I don't know what I mean.

The people at G-Monkey took it upon themselves to create an "app" for the iPhone and iPod Touch for all of us bacon fanatics out there.

At first upon hearing this news, I was terribly giddy. Then I watched their YouTube video about the app and thought, "Well now that I've seen it, WHY do I need it?"

Biggest bummer about the app: NO REAL BACON. After suffering through the delicious soundscape of pops, sizzles and crackles as the porky goodness bubbles on a stove-top grill, there are no rewards. Not even a grease burn on our hand to show our spoils of war! People, this app is a classic example of what I like to call a "bacon tease." HMPH!

So unless someone can figure out how to get real bacon to pop out of the USB port (squeeee!) I'd like to suggest some "additional apps" that can be downloaded to make this whole fake experience complete:

The "Exercising" app

The "Vomiting after Exercising" app

Followed by the "Complaining to anyone who will listen about how awful exercising was" app

And finish it off with the soon to be popular, "Procrastinating exercising ever again and turning into an unattractive couch potato" app

So even though this is a cool app, it's cool for about 2 minutes and 16 seconds. So I'll stick with my low rent phone and save myself the expense. And the "calories."
