Bacon Day is not one of those obscure American or International holidays, this is purely a celebration of all things bacon. The genesis of the idea came from the air staff of 95.7 KEZJ, News Radio 1310 KLIX, KOOL 96.5, and 98.3 The Snake discussing what foods would could be made better with bacon. It was our theory was that everything could be made better with bacon.

It turns out we were so right.

Today was declared ‘Bacon Day’ and all staff were asked to bring a bacon-themed dish for all to try. Dishes included:

  • Bacon Topped Apple Pie
  • Bacon Wrapped Jalapenos
  • Devils on Horseback (Dates wrapped with Bacon)
  • Maple Bars with Bacon
  • Potato Salad with Bacon
  • Bacon Cookies
  • Bacon Cake
  • And more!

It’s true: bacon does make many of our favorite foods better. This was a lot of fun and a great eating experience for the entire staff.  Relive our other bacon adventures from Monday and leave your comments and suggestions on other great bacon treats.

Happy Bacon Day!

UPDATE: Thanks to John from Falls Brand for bringing us more bacon!
