What is it?

What Dad really wants on Father’s Day. He’s got all the socks and jocks he’ll ever need. What hasn’t he got? Bacon-flavoured lip balm, that’s what.

Come again? Look, no man’s man is ever going to use regular lip balm. But flavour it with the king of meats and he’ll say goodbye forever to sore, chapped lips. Plus, mum will get a taste whenever he gives her a kiss. She’s a lucky, lucky woman.

Who makes it? Two American blokes with the mission statement “Everything should taste like bacon”. Boy, do these fellas love the stuff. They also make bacony sunscreen, deodorant, lubricant, even moustache wax.

Is real bacon involved? Nope: all of J&D’s products are certified vegetarian and kosher. Go figure!
