Big Bad-Ass Book of Shots
Pouring shots is easy if you don't mind drinking like a boring (and 21-or older) frat bro. But the Big, Bad-Ass Book of Shots is designed to help you get inebriated in a much more creative way. There are over 1,400 recipes inside that take your drinking game way beyond "pour brown stuff out of a bottle and into a tiny glass." It covers a wide range of subjects from body shots and Jell-O shots to more advanced techniques that require more mixing but less belly-button washing. Just think, the next time you take a shot it might not taste like you just drank a thimble full of bleach. Plus, the book is only $9, which is actually less than a shot if you're trying to drink in Manhattan.

Valentine's Day Gift Guide: Poco Dolce Bittersweet Tiles
If you show up at your lady's door with one of those big stupid chocolate hearts, you deserve to get punched right in the face. You can claim it's "ironic" all you want, but she'll know it's just laziness. These Bittersweet tiles are a welcomed change of pace from the normal candy fare, though. Each $34 package comes with a selection of flavors, including the traditional almond, as well as some wacky-but-awesome flavors like crystalized ginger, burnt caramel toffee and even Aztec Chile with cinnamon, chile and toasted pumpkin seeds. Sure, it sounds a little weird, but they're delicious. And really, is it any weirder than the blindingly pink, vaguely fruit flavored cream inside those heart chocolates? Definitely not.

Heinz Dip & Squeeze Ketchup Packets
Those old, bag-like ketchup packets were truly icons. They were good for just about everything, from throwing at the nerdy kids in school lunch to stealing by the handful from fast food restaurants in college. In fact, they only thing they weren't good at was getting ketchup onto your food and not your clothes. The age of the red stain is over, though, because Heinz has revamped their delicious goo into versatile dip and squeeze containers. Peel off the whole top and dip your fries or yank off the top and squeeze it onto a plate. They hold more ketchup and will be much more efficient. In fact, the only bad thing about them is the amount of times you'll have to hear people say, "I liked the old ones better!"

Hardee's Double Sausage, Egg 'N' Cheese Biscuit
Sometimes fast food innovation comes in the form of some fancy new sauce or a wacky new side dish meant to steal the spotlight away from the venerable french fry. But, sometimes all it takes is the addition of more meat to make an old menu item seem new again. In order to revamp their normal breakfast sandwich, Hardees did what any good man would do: They slapped more sausage onto it. The press release we received this morning (yes, we receive press releases about breakfast sandwiches) has one of the most amazing PR quotes of all time from the company's executive vice president of marketing, Brad Haley: "The only way to improve a classic was to make it twice as meaty, and therefore, twice as delicious. It won’t take two of these to fill you up in the morning." You speak the truth, Brad, and we love you for it. $2.39.

Sir Francis Bacon Peanut Brittle
We wouldn't necessarily expect this kind of wacky concoction from the expensive-scarf-wearing crowd at fancy pants grocery store chain, Dean & DeLuca. But apparently the salty draw of bacon is universal. Each box comes with 9-ounces of delicious sugarry hunks, peppered with peanuts and hickory smoked bacon. The product page claims that the flavor is "remarkably sophisticated," which we assume is a fancy way of saying, "it tastes like candy with bacon in it." $16.

Burger King Holiday Gift Cards
We don't like stereotypes around here, but if there's one that rings true, it's that guys suck at shopping for gifts. But, Burger King has a meat-laden solution for your procrastination problem. For just a buck, the kind ol' king will provide your lucky gift receiver with a witty card stuffed with an actual dollar meant to be spent on one of their 1/4 double cheeseburgers. The cards are actually kind of funny, so maybe if you leave one out for the mail man, he'll actually start delivering your copies of Maxim, rather than hording them in his secret mail cave.

Best Stuff of the Year: Bacon Products

If there is one thing we have learned in our years on this earth, it's that bacon can make just about anything much, much better. Need proof? We have all the marbled, smokey proof you need right here.

Mo's Bacon Choco Chip Pancake Mix

Starting your day off with the proper mix of carbohydrates, fats and proteins is a great way to jumpstart your metabolism. This sweet and savory mix doesn't offer anything close to that, but each $14 tube of buttermilk pancake mix is mixed with Vosges Chocolates' Mo Bacon Bars. It doesn't hit all of the food groups, just the awesome ones.

Skillet Bacon Jam

While we can't recommend pairing it up with peanut butter, this delicious concoction goes better with a burger than a beer and a televised baseball game. Each jar starts as a whole pile of high-quality bacon, which is cooked down and mixed with a unique blend of spices that will make you wonder why you ever bothered with ketchup in the first place. $17.

Tac Bac Tactical Canned Bacon

While the other conspiracy freaks are out there hording beans and water, we have been stocking up on cans of delicious pig. There's a good chance that it tastes incredibly gross and has the consistency of a Band-Aid, but there's something comforting in knowing that, even if zombies take over the surface of the earth, we can drown our sorrows in salt and fat. $16.

J&D's Bacon Pop

The same company that somehow found a way to combine bacon and mayonnaise recently dropped another salty gem on us in the form of Bacon Pop. It cooks just like a normal bag of microwave popcorn, which means you can make it even if Jiffy Pop is above your culinary pay grade. Even if you don't feel like eating it, just fire up a bag and use your microwave like a bacon-scented air freshener that will fill the whole house.

Bacon Soap

This pink and white marbled bar isn't edible, but using it in the shower will leave you with an unmistakable aura of bacon for the rest of the day. Each bar costs $6, which is more than we've spent on bars of soap in our entire lives (we prefer scented body washes, thank you), but until someone comes up with a better way to make our entire bodies smell like bacon, we're going to stick with it.

Sam Adams Utopia 2009
With its swanky golden bottle and 27-percent (that's 54 proof) alcohol content, the latest batch of this super beer from Sam Adams is the most outrageous yet. A new batch of Utopia is released every two years and 2009's will be limited to a run of just 10,000 bottles. It will set you back $150 if you want to try it, but those who have claim its strong taste that it's worth giving up the 75 cases of Golden Anniversary you would've bought otherwise. Because of the high alcohol content, it drinks more like a scotch than it does a typical beer and the flavor is intense, offering up strong tones of oak, maple, vanilla and dark fruit. In other words: It's too fancy to drink out of your Star Wars glasses.

Casa Dragones Tequila

Its minimalist bottle and sophisticated logo make this sipping tequila fit right in on the top shelf. It's hand-made in small batches, using modern filtration techniques to make it the smoothest tequila you've ever wrapped your lips around. The taste isn't nearly as harsh as the drug store stuff you might be used to because it's 100% Blue Agave Joven Tequila. They have so much faith in the drinkability of their product, the makers suggest you take it straight-up on the rocks. Try that with the cheap stuff and your face just might implode. $325 a bottle.
