If NPR Does a Story On It, Is It Now Officially Uncool?

I'm thinking it was a slow news day back in July, or the writer just wanted to get bombed for breakfast. Anyway, NPR's venerable "All Things Considered" show decided to do a tell-all on the infused alcohol trend. Not being a fan of NPR, I may have just passed this by if it weren't for the bacon angle. The writer moseyed down the street from their studios in DC (best to walk after this type of story) to the bar Proof. Among the drinks consumed, in the name of journalistic integrity I'm sure, were Jamesey's Breakfast Cocktail with a bacon-infused scotch (see left, and by the blurriness of the pic, I'm guessing it was taken after consuming a couple), and Minito with Anchovy Tequila. You can probably figure out the alcohol featured there. Check out the article, and listen to the piece as well. It may be the only time I reference something on NPR. But hey, you never know.

It's 5pm somewhere.
