Americans love bacon, but do they love it enough to help one man get from coast to coast solely by bartering bacon, without any cash or credit cards? Oscar Meyer is betting they do, and are setting out to prove it, with the Great American Bacon Barter:

“No cash, no cards, just a refrigerated trailer full of bad-ass bacon to barter for everything he needs. Lemonade? Get bacon for it. A spare tire? Get bacon for it. A spot on your couch? Get some butcher thick cut bacon for it. Check out baconbarter.com and see if you have anything he needs.” – BaconBarter
