Blue Moon Bakery - Great Food and Bad Art
The Blue Moon Bakery is in the middle of Big Sky in the Westfork Meadow Village. This place has amazingly good food and amazingly bad art.
The best thing about this place, besides the homemande pizzas are these “wonder bars” seen below. These are sort of like 7-layer bars, but they have a very robust inside layer of chocolate. When these things are heated for 20 seconds in the microwave, they hover in new state of matter somewhere between plasma and liquid. I think the state is technically considered LCD.
I decided to start featuring more of the world’s best desserts on here along with my rating scale. I give the Blue Moon wonder bar a rating of 8.8. This is a very high rating. Here is my scale:
Rating 0: A dessert that I will tolerate and perhaps eat if it is in front of me on a plane and I am starving. Example: sickly-looking lemon flan wrapped in plastic
Rating 5: A dessert that I decide to eat because there is nothing better on the menu and I feel like I deserve dessert. Example: homemade vanilla ice cream
Rating 10: A dessert that is so good that it causes instantaneous death and nirvana simultaneously. Example: unknown, unfortunately.
Throughout the Blue Moon there is some really bad art. I strongly suspect it was made by some angry, man-hating vagabond that skulks around Big Sky with a nihilist attitude and comfortable shoes. Here is one of them:

[…] All my close friends know me as a dessert freak, and if I am gonna eat dessert, I only want to go full throttle. I don’t want to eat a little tart or something “light”… So the other day I went to the Cheesecake Factory for dessert, where they have over 40 cheesecakes to choose from and I chose the newest one that is not even on the menu yet – the White Chocolate Peanut Butter cheesecake with chunks of Nutter Butters inside. I give this dessert a very respectable 8.6 on my scale. It was not as good as the Adam’s Peanut Butter Fudge Ripple, which is probably one of the best 2-3 types of cheesecake there… I notice that men try to rank everything they see, and I am no different, although I do take it to a granular ranking level with desserts.
