In other words: heaven.

The bacon bacchanalia recalls the old comedy skit on MTV's The State where actor Ben Garant extolls the many virtues of bacon—ultimately slipping into a little bacon dress and breaking out in bacon-themed song. Bring on the bacon:

Buckwheat Groats is a comedy rap team ("Penis Bailey the Bailey" and "Lil' Dinky") that puts the healthy drizzle on your sizzle, fo shizzle dizzle. They got food-safety flow, too, yo:

"If you think it’s undercooked, you’re wildin’ fella / Buckwheat Groats don’t get down with no salmonella"

Check this shit out.

Don't skip this video. It's one of the best parodies of celebrity chef cooking shows I've seen. The Monster Munch garnish is brilliant.
