Our roommate is obsessed with How It’s Made, the Discovery Channel show that shows viewers…well, how different things are made. We’ve never gotten much into it (we’re weirded out by the oddly porn-y music and the announcer’s hypnotically calm voice), but thanks to this video we found on Serious Eats, we have realized that the show is awesome, like a grown-up version of the factory tours on Mr. Rogers. The video shows how (pre-cooked) bacon is made. While there are plenty of better ways to make bacon (we turn to MP: South Florida’s Carolina who is something of an expert), it’s still a pretty entertaining clip.
