People ask me a lot what it’s like to work at CafePress, and when I saw buzzcowboy walk into the building today with the Pocket full of Bacon t-shirt, I just had to take a picture to show you.  Yes, we really do wear CafePress t-shirts around the office (especially buzz, who will wear pretty much anything that makes her laugh).

I asked her to pose for a picture and then another employee told her to go get a frying pan.  But since we don’t have a stove at the office all she could find was a spatula.  Then I found the green piggy bank to go with her awesome shirt.  She decided the “Feed your passion” poster was the perfect backdrop, and here’s the result.

It really seems like everyone loves bacon – a simple search for bacon on the Marketplace gives you a result of 50,700 bacon themed products.   So I asked buzzcowboy whether her shirt or real bacon was better and she chose her shirt.  Here’s why (from the desk of buzzcowboy):

• It’s organic!
• It’s cruelty-free
• It’s more seasonally-appropriate autumn-wear than real bacon
• It has far less fat and far more fiber than real bacon
• It lasts a lot longer

Maybe bacon is the new black this fall.
