The Big Love festival in Asheville, N.C. introduced us to a snack food we can’t get enough of and we’re sure you’ll love it too. How can you resist a healthy option that includes bacon? Yeah, we knew that would get your attention.

Coconut Organics, founded in 2010, produces CocoBacon—a vegan bacon alternative snack made from coconut chips. They spice and flavor them so they have the satisfaction and taste of real bacon, but better for you.

Ingredients include toasted organic coconut chips, organic coconut oil, low-glycemic organic coconut sugar, sea salt, and organic mesquite smoke flavor and a unique spice blend. Price for a two-bag pack of CocoBacon is only six bucks or buy a case for $24.

But that’s not all. They also have plain coconut chips and another flavored with dark chocolate.

Give ’em a shot and let us know what you think.

Miller Lite is taking the whole drink in front of the fireplace thing quite literally. Today, the macro brewer released YuleLager, or a beer-pouring fireplace inspired by the famous yule log. Now, folks can have a good nightcap drink before a beer-dispensing pretend hearth.

What's included? For starters, an LED screen playing an 8-hour loop of burning wood. You also get a pouring contraption meant to look like a chimney withe a custom tap handle. What's more, there's audio mimicking crackling fire sounds, spare beer storage, and hooks to hang stockings.

When it comes to coffee, everyone has their own personal preferences, and they usually stray from their normal order. But that's not always the case. Even coffee drinkers who generally prefer black coffee's bold, slightly bitter taste will occasionally feel the desire to change their coffee orders.

Black espresso drinks, such as the long black or the Americano, deliver an even stronger taste than plain black coffee. While the long black and the Americano contain just water and espresso, the preparation for the long black vs. Americano espresso is entirely different. Here's what you need to know about each beverage's differences in taste and preparation.

Laws Whiskey House

Colorado-based Laws Whiskey House has been crafting high-quality, award-winning whiskeys since it opened in 2011.

Honey Cask Finished Straight Bourbon Whiskey

This whiskey begins when raw, unprocessed honey is added to Four Frain Straight Bourbon barrels. Afterward, the same barrels are filled with more Four Grain Straight Bourbon for more maturation. This creates a complex whiskey known for its flavors of candied orange peels, herbal tea, ripe berries, honey, and classic bourbon aromas and flavors.
