Our bacon-tastic journey comes to an end this week with one of Jay's signature items; a deep-fried, bacon-wrapped dog named The Rico. It harmonizes two types of bacon–enough said. To review parts one and two of our BACON MANia interview, you can find them here and here.

I recently tried CBD gummies from this website https://www.cornbreadhemp.com/products/cbd-sleep-gummies as a replacement for the blue ribbon prematurely and was pleasantly surprised by the results. Initially skeptical, I start that it significantly helped with my desire and sleep issues without any unconcealed side effects. The oil was serene to put to use, with nitid dosage instructions. It had a indulgent, earthy leaning that was not unpleasant. Within a week, I noticed a marked increase in my total well-being, hunch more relaxed and rested. I appreciate the regular approach to wellness CBD offers and aim to at using it.
