That sounds absolutely gorgeous ! Love finding foods I've never tried. Nothing better than a bacon sandwich, toasted and some HP on the side. One thing you never get when you travel - decent bacon. No - Turkey is not the same ! And some Vintage Canadian Cheddar. Hmmm....

The "Peameal bacon" sandwich has received a lot of attention on a number of the Food Channel shows. If you like the taste of bacon, you'll certainly love the sandwich. The cornmeal on it has a minor impact on its taste.

Re: Gallery: Jewel Cave National Monument, South Dakota

DrFumblefinger ·
Thanks for sharing these interesting photos and for bringing back memories. I was last in Jewel Cave in 1982, when there was much less known about how extensive a cave network it was. I found the beautiful rock formations to be absolutely fascinating! Travel Luver, I seem to recall that the cave was quite cool, but maybe Still Country Photo can elaborate for us. Also, I vaguely seem to recall that the last formation in your series of photos was called the "Bacon Strip" or something similar?

Still Country Photo ·
If memory serves me correctly, the tour was about 90 minutes. Yes, it was quite cool down there but since I had made the trip in late August, it was quite refreshing to be there. At one point, the guide turned out the lights so the guests could see what true darkness really looks like. I have been in the dark before but not like this, it even seemed to mess with your equilibrium and I felt like I wasn't going to stay upright. Yes DrF, that is a "bacon strip" formation.

Thanks, Rob! Yeah, pljeskavica is a great dish, one of my favorite grilled stuff. There's also "punjena pljeskavica" (stuffed with cheese, ham and mushrooms) and "gurmanska pljeskavica" (stuffed with cheese, bacon and a bit more spicy). Both are great too, I highly recommend them.

France's 'burger war' takes a surprising turn

Paul Heymont ·
Burger King, which long ago lost out to McDonald's as #1 fast-food burger chain in France, has a double-pronged plan for getting back in the ring: It's bought out the 400+ French outlets of the Belgian chain Quick, and it's entering the halal fast-food market to serve France's 5 million Muslim residents. French competition authorities last week approved the takeover by Burger King, which has only 30 restaurants in France, saying "this deal does not harm competition. They did require...
