I saw a chef on TV wrap bacon around bananas...has anyone tried this? Is there any way it tastes good?

    When I was a wee lad, I used to make toasted peanut butter, bacon, and banana sandwiches - not quite the coronary-inducing deep-fried concoctions that helped take down Elvis, but definitely not the sort of thing you would want to eat on a regular basis.

    Still, it's a terrific combination...

    I was recently in South Africa, and bacon-and-banana is a standard option for pizzas. I ordered it once, out of curiosity. It was delicious, but would be better in small quantities. Two completely different but fairly strong flavors competing. Maybe a nice appetizer/hors d'oeuvres?

    grilled bacon wrapped bananas are on the pu pu platter at divine bar, a wine and tapas place in nyc. my boyfriend forced me to eat one on our first date (i was mostly vegetarian at the time). refused to admit it at the time, but it was delicious.

    My best friend wrapped bacon around an egg yolk and cooked the whole thing. It looked like a giant phallus and tasted like one, too.

    She's also made bananas foster with candied bacon before, and it really does taste good. Caramel seems to bridge the gap between the two flavors really well.

    I've had peanut butter, bacon & banana and that's definitely good. I bet bacon & banana is also good...

    I was at a bar when the btender brought out a bottle of bacon vodka given to him by a friend. He made a couple banana bacon daiquiris that were delicious, and very weird.

    I found this:

    bakonvodka.com

    although they don't have the daiquiri recipe. they should.

    The Elvis IS with bacon in addition to bananas, honey and peanut butter. They just leave out the bacon most places that it's served. But the sandwich he bought the rights to had bacon on it. And yes, the banana-bacon combo is awesome.

    Since I'm a vegetarian, I can't say if that combination tastes good or not, but it reminds me of this sandwich, which is peanut butter, banana, bacon, and honey. Elvis liked it--it can't be that bad, right?

    Depends on the banana.
