www.dailymail.co.uk said:

Those who love bacon to death can now be buried in it – for $2,999.99.

J&D Foods, a Seattle-based company that specialises in all things bacon – including bacon lip balm and bacon lubricant – claims to have launched a genuine bacon coffin.

The casket is allegedly made of 18-gauge gasketed steel with a ‘Premium Bacon Exterior/Interior'.

It also includes a bacon air freshener 'for when you get that buried-underground, not-so-fresh feeling.'

The firm claims they are putting the ‘fun’ back into funerals by helping bacon-lovers live out their piggish fantasies into the afterlife.

:P   If true, it's only fitting.....I'm sure bacon has put more than a few in a box prematurely.

From what I can tell by what the article says, it's not actually made of bacon.  It's just painted like bacon.
