We had a Secret Santa gift exchange at work, which was a lot of fun. Several of my coworkers said, "Well, you know what YOU're gonna get, right?" not even bothering to point out explicitly how my constant talk of bacon would pay off.
Do you see that big huge green bag? That was for me! I exclaimed all morning that OHMIGAWD, Santa was getting me a whole big bag of BACON!!! Then someone asked me if I'd checked on it, or picked it up, which I hadn't. So I picked up the bag, which was wayyy too light to contain bacon. :-(
But then it was time for the actual gift-picking and unpacking, and OHMIGAWD, do you know what was in the bag?
Check. It. OUT!!!
Well, OK - I'll give - how did the bag manage to be so light with all those treats inside? Is this some magical bacon that will make me lighter? Because that is a GREAT gift!

You got it: it's magical bacon! And the non-magic explanation is most likely that the bacon was stored in a fridge during the day, until it was time to gather and exchange gifts.
