Conan O’Brien in Chocolate and Bacon

A bust of Conan O’Brien appeared on The Tonight Show with him last night, but what it was made out of is what’s truly newsworthy!
Apparently, No Name Premium Meats, who supplied the bacon, sent Conan a 200-pound bust of himself made entirely out of white chocolate and bacon.
O’Brien had made a comment during an interview back in June that he would visit the Minnesota State Fair if he could get his body weight in chocolate covered bacon, which the Fair claims is a specialty of theirs. Something tells me Conan may have been looking more for something like this! O’Brien didn’t make it to the fair after all, the Minnesotans are determined to get him there next year.
Sculptor Linda Christensen labored over a 300-pound chunk of white chocolate for a full week before it was sent to O’Brien in California. No Name won’t disclose how much the whole thing cost, but says it was worth every penny.

That’s wonderful! Think he’ll eat it? : )
The hair is a bit creepy, but funny — like Conan.
OK…now I wond’t be able to look at his hair without seeing bacon!
