It’s a well known fact that I’m a sucker for creative advertising. It doesn’t get much more clever than driving across the country with nothing but bacon with which to barter. Step aside Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, there’s a new meat truck in town.

The shtick is pretty clear. Drum up some publicity for their thick strips and entertain the masses along the way. Solid plan, Oscar. Bacon is has long since overtaken cat pictures as the most popular thing going right now, so why not give the people what they want? You can follow along with Josh Sankey and Bacon Barter on Facebook or Twitter, and when he comes your way offer up goods and services. Don’t even think about pulling an indecent proposal though. Your girlfriend is probably worth a metric ton of bacon, but I wouldn’t recommend making that deal.
