Behold ‘Baconhenge’

imageCarin Huber has never been to Stonehenge. But her mouthwatering ode to Great Britain’s most storied prehistoric site gives landmark groupies some serious inspiration, at the very least for brunch. Huber stacked bacon-wrapped French toast sticks on a fritatta to create “Baconhenge” for the bacon-themed issue put out by the AntiCraft, a very cool craft-zine with an attitude at least as towering as those monumental rocks in the English countryside.

That looks awesome—and so bad for you.

At least eating it won’t be another incident of touristic vandalism.

Amazing. A work of art. And let’s not forget Carhenge:

But I’d like to see more food recreations of great landmarks. Perhaps a restaurant devoted to it.

I love it! 

More unorthodox versions of Stonehenge by Spinal Tap star Christopher Guest in this silly spoof on National Geographic:
