Michael Nelson, host of the hilarious pop culture phenomenon Mystery Science Theater 3000, vowed on January 31st to consume only bacon during the entire month of February.

We'll likely never know, since the bacon diet will surely kill him within days. Farewell, Mike.
Oh, it doesn't fit your strict diet, Mike, but other bacon lovers may want to try CL's Bacon Brittle and Bacon Cupcakes out of solidarity.
