Wearable Bacon Tie

You know, bacon has always been one of my most favorite things, for as long as I can remember. It is never out of popularity, and is always awesome, not to mention tasty!

But I was thinking the other day, how could I possibly keep it with me throughout the day, while keeping my hands and pockets free? Then it came to me: make it into an article of clothing! But a shirt, jacket or pants would just break any bacon apart, and would be really awkward to walk in. So the thing that made most sense to me was a tie. It is easy to wear, plus it is nice and close to your mouth! It is also super-fashionable.

To make this tie, you just need 8 strips of bacon and a broiler pan, as well as a functioning oven.

Step 1: Frame it Out

This starts by making the basic shape of the tie (remember to construct this on the broiler pan, so you dont have to transfer it later).

Take 3 of the strips of bacon. Place 2 of the strips in a V shape with the ends overlapping. Cut the other strip in half, and place the two halves together, connecting the two full pieces to create a basic tie shape (Check the picture for placement). I made mine a little wider, but you can do yours as wide or narrow as you want.
