There was a little something for everybody. Those who didn't have a sweet tooth could snap up these bacon cheesy poofs.
What's a bake sale without chocolate chip cookies? Bits of bacon were bursting out of these gooey versions of the childhood favorite.

After attendees scarfed up enough bacon-infused nosh to raise a heart surgeon's eyebrows, the winners were announced. The bacon cheesy poofs claimed the number one spot, while a bacon ice-cream (not pictured) created by CNET reporter
Caroline McCarthy nabbed second. But really, when salty pig parts are inserted into baked goods, everyone wins. (Except vegetarians.)
