Poems about Fake Bacon and Eggs and other fake foods. Hmm hungry for the real thing yet?
Fake Eggs
I love real eggs
From real chicken
Preferably free range
Vegetarian fed,
No antibiotic feed
No hormones added
Non-caged chickens,
allowed to roam about
As God intended
them to do
Not locked up
In chicken coop hell
But now
We have so many choices
We can have fake eggs
Without any cholesterol
Or yoke
Tastes like real chicken eggs
At least they claim
But who knows what’s real
Any more
Can you trust
The chicken is real?
Fake Bacon
It seems that bacon
Has come back from the dead
And is everywhere these days
There is even bacon ice cream
Bacon whiskey
Bacon tacos
Yeah, I love bacon
But I don’t like the fake bacon
You can get beef bacon
Turkey bacon
Tofu bacon
All look like bacon
Taste like bacon
Cook like bacon
Seems to be bacon
But it is all sham
Nothing real about it
Just another fake healthy food
In a long line
Of fake food products
Designed to get our money
Out of our pockets
And into their greedy little arms
So, I resist
I want the real deal
I want bacon real bacon
With my real eggs
And if it means
I am fated
To die of a real heart attack
At least I will die
A real man
Fake Tea
Tea is another thing
That seems to be fake
These days
All sorts of fake herbal teas
Decafe teas
Tea substitutes
Tastes the same
Looks the same
But it is not the real deal
Not really a cup of tea
The British know a thing
Or two
About fake tea
Been complaining about tea bags
For centuries
And that was the first fake tea
