    The famous Fool's Gold Loaf

    The evening of February 1, 1976, found Elvis home at Graceland entertaining
    two favored guests in the jungle room. Capt. Jerry Kennedy was a member
    of the Denver police force, and Ron Pietrafeso was in charge of Colorado's
    Strike Force Against Crime. Elvis had met both men several years earlier
    during his period of extreme interest in law enforcement, which culminated
    in his surprice drop-in visit to President Nixon, who named Elvis a "special
    agent". Tonight, as Elvis sat on his Kon Tiki throne chair in front of the
    jungle room's babbling waterfall, the discussion centered on law enforcement
    in Colorado. Elvis however, was reminded of something else. Colorado was
    the home of the absolutely delicious sandwich, the best Elvis had ever eaten:
    the Fool's Gold.

    Elvis had sampled the sandwich only once, when after a concert he was
    invited to a restaurant called the Colorado Cold Mine Company in the Denver
    suburbs of Glendale. He ordered the house specialty, which was named Fool's
    Gold because of it's outrageous price -$49.95. The first bite alone was
    enough to make a lasting impression on Elvis.

    Now, months later, Elvis was reminded of those sandwiches. Both of his
    guests from Colorado were very curious about this extravagant treat. The King's
    policy when enteraining in his rock and roll palace was to grant his guests' every
    desire - your wish was literally the King's command, be it a game of racquetball
    at four in the morning or a down-home Southern breakfast at midnight. However,
    the "Fool's Gold Loaf", since it came from a restaurant in Denver, would stretch
    the limits of even Elvis' notion of hospitality.

    Elvis gazed across at his guests, who were comfortably ensconced on the Hawaiian
    armchairs, cushioned by the rabbit's fur throw pillows. The conversation continued
    to revolve around the sandwiches. One of the guys impulsively remarked, "Boy,
    I wish I had me one of them now!", Elvis knew what he and his guests wanted and
    the thousand-mile-journey to the Fool's Fold Loaf would not deter him. Elvis looked
    at his friends and shouted, "Let's go get 'em!"

    Before the lawmen knew what was happening they were seated inside Elvis'
    stretch Mercedes along with another couple of Elvis' buddies, and whisked to
    the Memphis airport. Elvis' personal jet, the Lisa Marie, was waiting for them on
    the tarmac. As the four jet engines roared for takeoff, the excitement inside the
    plane revved even higher as Elvis and his guests were about to be flown the two
    hours to Denver for Elvis' favorite sandwich, the most mouthwatering sandwich
    known to the King.

    Ones aloft, Elvis, the lawmen, and the test of the gang gathered in the plane's
    dining room, around its leather topped table sith surrounding bucket seats
    upholstered in aquamarine plush. Though Elvis often snacked on the Lisa Marie,
    in anticipation of the filling treat to come his only indulgence was a bottle of his
    vine de table - regular Pepsi.

    At the Colorado Gold Mine Company, the scene was frenzied. The call had come
    in from Memphis at midnight. The cooks had less than two hours to prepare the
    "takeout" order of their lifetime. The massive griddle was scrubbed clean in order
    to fry up the huge quantitites of bacon required. The loaves of bread were quickly
    hollowed out and then briefly browned. The other ingredients were always ready.
    Miraculously, the staff completed its creation in the nick of time. The restauranteur,
    his wife, and a waiter speed of off for the Denver airport with twenty-two loaves.
    As requested, a case of Perrier and a case of champagne accompanied the
    sandwiches, along with a chest of cracked ice.

    Elvis' plane touched down at 1:40 am at Stapleton Airport and taxied to a private
    hangar. The owner of the restaurant personally brought Elvis and his party the
    order on silver trays. For two hours in the Denver night, the feasting went on.
    It was typical of Elvis' generosity that he insisted that the plane's pilots, Milo
    High and Elwood Davis, join the fun. Elvis, as usual, avoided the alcohol,
    instead washing down the sandwiches with the Perrier. It was yet another
    night of dining Elvis style on food fit for the King.

    And just what is "Fool's Gold Loaf"? Far be it from Elvis to settle fon an ordinary
    peanut butter an jelly sndwich. Fool's Gold Loaf is a p.b.j realized on such a
    heroic scale as to become truly Olympian.

    An entire loaf of bread is warmed and then hollowed out. The sandwich is
    generously spread with peanut butter and an equally thick layer of jelly.
    Finally, lean bacon has to be cooked, at least a pound fried to crispness,
    to fill the reamining belly of the loaf. The massive loaf is then downed
    while the bacon is still hot. The serving size? One loaf per person.
