Oooh, that bacon chocolate may be a little too weird for me! On the other hand, my friend Pam's candied bacon is really tasty, so who knows?
I tried a green tea chocolate, but I think the chocolate kind of overwhelmed the tea flavor. There's a spicy Green & Black bar, but I think that's only conventional "sweet" spices.
The bacon bar is surprisingly tasty, if you like smoky flavored stuff! It's not really any weirder than getting chocolate chip pancakes and bacon at IHOP. I've never had candied bacon - that sounds delicious!
I've had really good Earl Grey chocolate. I'm not a huge fan of Earl Grey tea because the begamot can be cloying, but it works really well in chocolate. Unfortunately it seems that green tea is either overwhelmed or absolutely revolting in most candies... I bought some random Japanese "Green Tea Milk" chocolate once, and it tasted like vomit. x__x
