Why do we love bacon?

It is a staple of American breakfasts, loved by meat eaters across the world, and has even been blamed for turning vegetarians into meat eaters.

Now researchers say they have solved the mystery of what makes the smell of bacon so attractive.

The key, they claim, is the 150 different organic compounds discovered in its aroma.

Being Bacon day, here's a bit of bacon history for you all:

As early as 1500 BC the Chinese were known for salting pork bellies.   And do you know where the phrase to 'bring home the bacon' came from?   In the olden days people used to play a sport that involved catching a pig at country fairs - and the winning catcher got to take it home!

Bacon is Awesome!

There are only two kinds of people in this world, those who love bacon...

...and those who love bacon but won't admit it.

Some say bacon is losing its sizzle in our culture others say More bacon bitches!

After all, you don’t start the first diet of 2015 until the next day.
