What is Bacon Day?

On Bacon Day, bacon enthusiasts celebrate one of nature's most popular gifts on Bacon Day, on December 30th each year. The day reminds us that bacon is not just for breakfast and encourages us to try out various ways to enjoy this culinary wonder.

Everything is better with bacon, as someone said once. And our study shows that there is little to contradict this claim.

Bacon is made from the pork belly in the United States and Canada. Other nations around the world use the side and back cuts of pork. The meat is either a salt brine or a salt pack can be used to cure it. It is then either dried, boiled, or smoked.

Bacon is a very popular dish in the United States. Over half of the population of the United States said they used a pound or more bacon this year. Many items that are flavored or scented with bacon include popcorn, soap, candles, air fresheners, and much more. Although these recipes fit right into the day, we recommend using bacon to prepare.

No longer is it just for breakfast any more. Bacon is a fruit that is everywhere from beverages to dessert. Some cocktails, such as the Bloody Mary and Caesar, add bacon to the olives, pickles, or other assorted ingredients. Bacon adds to the flavor of many appetizers, sandwiches, and soups. Incorporate bacon as a topping or mix it into the dressing to make salads. Bacon pairs well with maple frosting or maple ice cream for dessert. It compliments sweet perfectly thanks to bacon's salty, smoky flavor. The possibilities are endless.
