Alarm Clock Wakes You Up With Bacon
In an episode of The Office, Michael Scott said he wanted to wake up to the smell of bacon each morning. So every night before going to bed he laid strips of bacon on the grill and set a timer for it to turn on in the morning. One morning he stepped on the grill and cooked his foot.
Matty Sallin, Daniel Bartolini, and Hsiao-huh Hsu designed the Wake n’ Bacon alarm clock just for Michael — and all the other bacon lovers who wish to rise and shine with the delicious aroma of melting pig fat flowing in their nostrils. Mm-mmm.
The Wake n’ Bacon is much safer than Michael’s method. You stick a strip of frozen bacon into its tray before you go to bed; then you set the alarm. Ten minutes before the alarm is set to go off, the Wake n’ Bacon turns on two halogen bulbs that slowly cook the bacon.
You’d have to be really stupid to step into this thing. Then again you’d have to be pretty stupid to seriously want one of these.
