Not My Kind Of Sucker

Last night after a 3 am discussion about organic Maple Syrup, I decided to search for recipes. I should input here that I have no clue why we spent nearly 45 minutes talking about syrup nor do I know why I searched for recipes I'll never use.

I did however find a site that makes Maple Bacon lollipops. Really, Maple Bacon? According to the site, there are actual chunks of salty organic bacon inside the Vermont Maple syrup. Nothing like a side of heart attack to go with your plate of diabetes.

It's possible that I find this a bit off because I don't like bacon at all. I don't want to eat it, look at it or smell it. So why would I want to suck it? I can think of a few other things far more inviting to suck on than these lollipops.

The site also sells absinthe lollipops which I find far more intriguing and would definitely be willing to taste. How could absinthe, perfectly legal mind you, hardened and slapped on a stick be bad? (Not that I'm saying I've ever had absinthe just that I'd be willing to try an absinthe lolly. For research purposes ya know.)
