can we all just agree that this is a truly amazing recipe suggestion?

from the sunsweet prunes publication our favorite sunsweet recipes:

sweet and savory appetizers:
roly poly—stuff each prune with a water chestnut. wrap half a slice of bacon around each and place on shallow baking sheet. bake in preheated 400 degree F oven 15 minutes or until bacon is cooked through.

my mind is boggled. boggled! does this even deserve the "food" tag? how about the "gross" one? i wish i felt like i needed a tag that was called "this is an astonishing idea about how to combine otherwise perfectly respectable food products. please think about it a little bit!"

and who thought of that? and who decided to name is "roly poly"? because where i come from, roly pollies are bugs. they're kind of fun to play with, but imagining eating a giant one is not appealing.

so you'd eat bacon otherwise cooked?

nope! but fake bacon, that's another story altogether.
