I've never found a food or beverage that chocolate didn't complement.  I'd try it.

Um...

you guys have seen Mo's Bacon Chocolate Bar, no?

http://www.vosgeschocolate.com/product/bacon_exotic_candy_bar/exotic_candy_bars

Quote$7.50         
Breathe…engage your five senses, close your eyes and inhale deeply. Be in the present moment, notice the color of the chocolate, the glossy shine. Rub your thumb over the chocolate bar to release the aromas of smoked applewood  [bacon] flirting with deep milk chocolate. Snap off just a tiny piece and place it in your mouth, let the lust of salt and sweet coat your tongue.

Mo's Bacon Bar: applewood smoked  [bacon] + Alder wood smoked salt + deep milk chocolate, 41% cacao

Consume within 8 weeks

the "lust of salt" thing is kinda embarrassing, but i don't think that's something a guy who buys a bacon-chocolate bar would even notice.  you know, f'ing poetry, bah!

but "Really, what doesn't taste better with  [bacon]?" says the creator, so there you go.
