Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell is known as Bacon Fingers. During his first gubernatorial race he and his cronies stopped by Eat n’ Park in Robinson Township to eat the Breakfast bar. While Rendell was stacking his plate with food he set the plastic tongs aside and put his whole hands in the pan. He fingered a whole pan of bacon and removed only select pieces. The customers complained and notified the breakfast bar workers what had happened. The entire pan of bacon had to be thrown out and remade. The Term Bacon Fingers was coined when Rendell was seen licking the bacon grease off his fingers.
