Default Just in time for summer: BK to roll out Bacon Sundae!

I can't decide if this sounds good or terrible!

Its both a good and a terrible idea: Good for your tastebuds, terrible for your arteries.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that it's not made with real bacon which would alleviate the arterial concerns.

However, as much as I love bacon, I just don't think I can participate beyone 1 curious tip of the tongue taste.

Artificial bacon or bacon flavouring will probably increase the arterial concerns.

the regular customers of BK don't often have "arterial concerns" on their mind, they most likely should, but most likely don't

Hasn't this "let's try adding bacon to that" trend rund it's course yet? Yeah, I get it, you like bacon, but there is other food.

I think the regular customers of BK don't know what arteries are.

There is a pub in Red Deer/ Sylvan that does a bacon/maple ice cream donut dessert.

It's wonderful.

A bacon-flavored donut (with sea-salted caramel sauce) was one of the best desserts I've had in recent memory. Mind you this was at some fancy-pants restaurant that made it from scratch, not 7-11.

Bacon and ice cream goes together fairly well IMO (salty and sweet in combination can be pretty awesome). I'm sure this will be mediocre, but if I'm ever at a BK, I'll probably give it a try.

Big deal. The McDonalds by my school will add bacon to anything for 79 cents. Anything.

Next time I find myself there, I'm ordering a Smarties McFlurry with bacon mixed in.

Hudsons has deep-fried mini donuts with bacon and maple syrup on their dessert menu right now.

Denny's had a bacon sundae on as a special last year, I think. It wasn't too bad.

Back in college my buddy worked at a Mickey Dees downtown. After hours we decided to make a bacon McFlurry. It was horrible. I would imagine this would be just as awful.
