The cross country trip that bacon bartered
OSCAR MAYER / BACON BARTER
To promote the meaty value of Oscar Mayer's Butcher Thick Cut bacon, we sent a stand-up comic from NY to LA without any cash or credit cards—just a truck, a Twitter feed, and 3,000 bricks of Butcher Thick Cut to barter for all the food, gas, lodging, and supplies he'd need along the way. Turns out, good bacon is worth more than its weight in gold.
