You gonna eat that?

You gonna eat that?

CL Senior Staff Writer Scott Henry and I woke up bright and early this morning to hear Mayor Kasim Reed's annual "State of the City" address at the Georgia World Congress Center. In addition to being briefed on the city's upcoming initiatives (look for Scott's write-up on Fresh Loaf soon), we learned that stiff pink strips of turkey bacon — or is it Sizzlean? — will be this year's must-serve meal at corporate and political events. It's gonna be huge. You heard it here first.
