Here at eDiets, we tend to get a little silly sometimes... especially on Fridays. And so we've started a new weekly column: FRIDAY FUNNIES! Be sure to check back every week to join us for some ridiculousness! :)Today's topic: Bacon haiku. It's a battle of our (un)poetic talents. The rules are simple; 3 lines (5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables) -- about one of our favorite foods, Bacon.
Read our haikus below and vote on the winner!
Bacon what's shakin
Fatty crispy crunchy good
Make my belly bulge.

Sizzle crispy crunch
Makes everything better
Bacon greasy great.
-- Shawn McKee, staff writer
Fry up some piggy
Wakey wakey eggs bakey
Sausage will not do.

Delivered by God
Making the Saliva run
Bacon in my blood.

Bring home the bacon.

My vote is for Dorian. Save the sausage for your pizza!
Bacon, I Love You
Better to bring home than eat
Must get back to work

I'm at the beach, so mine has a more nautical theme:
bacon loves scallop
it's a beautiful embrace
more than just breakfast

Poor of you, piggies!
Sealed in a pan day and night...
For we have no right.
