Looks like Wendy’s isn’t the only company that’s experimenting with bacon lately. Behold the bacon boomerang, courtesy of Weight Watchers. This porcine invention, a sure hit at any outdoors pig roast, is part of a campaign for the weight-loss company by Belgian agency Duval Guillaume. The little blue sticker reads, “Wouldn’t you prefer it if the fat didn’t come back? Weight Watchers. Get it off and keep it off.” While I applaud their innovation, I can totally picture some goofy frat guy telling his friends that he’d love to throw the ol’ bacon boomerang at this month’s FHM model, if you catch his drift.
