@Craig McBreen And a big thank you for the blog kudos - we're always happy to find out that people enjoy reading it as much as we enjoy writing it!
@Craig McBreen We're looking forward to reading your review after you've finished it, too! Erika's insights on branding, marketing and motivation are always so fresh and funny - you're one lucky guy, Craig!
As for Social Mix, it's too bad you can't join us. It's going to be a great day, but rest assured: I'll be reporting from the front lines whenever I'm not trying very carefully to avoid tripping across the stage, accidentally breathing into the mic, and forgetting my introductions, so it might feel as if you're there with us. Without the awesome snacks.
Thank you very much, Andrea! I assure you that it's all one hundred percent true - working at Jugnoo is really that awesome, and I'm just lucky that my colleagues give me all the material I need to write these posts. ;)
To answer your question; yes, chocolate bacon is, in fact, a real thing, courtesy of the lovely ladies at Leonard Pig Candy. I must confess, however, that I am an unabashed vegetarian, so I didn't sample their wares myself. They did sell out, though, which means someone was eating it!

@DannyBrown Let's be honest here: what do I know of bacon? Back or otherwise!
Not so sure that bacon travels so well, @DannyBrown.
Well, I do exaggerate. Sometimes. Not all the time.
That story I told about juggling sixteen live eels while riding a unicycle? It was actually only eight.
@belllindsay What is this Jell-O Tree you speak of? Like, just nailing a box of Jell-O (preferably orange flavour) to a tree? Because I think we can do that. I can ask the interns.
@jasonkonopinski Thank you! To be honest, though - I just call 'em as I see 'em. So, my compliments to Team Jugnoo for providing me with so much inspiration! ;)
