I'm sick, I keep trying to tell myself I'm not sick, but I am. My head is now swarming with visions of flying bacon from the cold medicine. Okay maybe not but wouldn't that be cool. Flying bacon, it's like the pig who could fly and flew too close to the sun. Okay I'm going to go back to bed, but post will come soon I promise!
Enjoy,
Alexa and the Bacon Boys

A little place in Boulder (where Bacon Day started) with wonderful bacon delights Click on the image to go to their webpage!
Bacon Day is held on the Saturday before Labor Day US (the first Monday of Sep.). This year that is the 5th of September. Last year Bacon Day was celebrated in the US, Australia, Canada, South Africa, Switzerland, and the UK. Lets see how many more countries we can add to the list this year!
Welcome to International Bacon Day.
Welcome to International Bacon Day
Bacon Day is open to everyone. Vegetarians can have fake-con (soy bacon) and religious objectors non-pork bacon (I suggest turkey bacon).Bacon Day is a day of Bacon... think Iron Chef but all day and the secret ingredient is Bacon. Breakfast traditionally consists of bacon waffles, with a side of bacon, and any other concoctions thought up. Throughout the day there are showings of Kevin Bacon movies and any other movies with leading roles given to pigs, e.g. Babe, Piglet's Big Adventure. Lunch must have BLTs and there are snacks around and slices of bacon everywhere. Dinner is a fight for your food quite literally. It is more a tasting of all things bacon and everyone wants a taste. Due to the vast quantities of bacon cooked, the grill outside is the best bet. If you are invited to a Bacon Day celebration, it is traditional to bring something to eat (of course containing bacon) which can be made there if the host allows, and drink (which may or may not include bacon).
The creator of Bacon Day is Seth. His friends helped put together the logistics (a BIG thanks to Evan and Brandon and possibly me Alexa:) ) and as we are starting to all move on from our grad student days, we plan to bring bacon day with us. This blog is to help spread, coordinate future bacon days, and share. The first Annual Bacon Day was held in 2005.
If you have any questions or want to hear the full story about Bacon Day and how it was created, feel free to email us at international.bacon.day at gmail dot com.
Enjoy

I've come across your website and I've noticed one very important thing missing. There is as far as I tell, no reference to, or even mention of that most important of internet memes, baconcat.
I'm surprised at you, John Scalzi's taping of bacon to his cat is a large reason I am such a baconite, and I know that I am far not the only one.
You may have covered him in previous years, in which case I apologise but if not it's a missing out of bacon related goodness.
Bacon Day is December 30th.
Or perhaps, this is like Christmas, when Jesus wasn't born in December. But Bacon was. Bacon. Bacon Day. December. Thirtieth.
Bacon. Nature's perfect food.
Nice Reading. Thanks

Bacon Story:
You walk into the kitchen and set down your briefcase, looking for a quick snack before you go to bed. It was a rough day at the office. You hear a wierd popping noise emanating from the stove behind you. Oh No! not another gas leak, you think and sigh. You slowly turn around to confront the problem, only to find a pan lying on the stove with the burner on. The popping and cracking noise continues. Drats! did i leave the burner on with an empty pan you think and you grip the handle of the pan only to look straight into the face of three sizzling strips of bacon and a fat chunk of butter. A single tear streams down your weary face. Without thinking you pick up each piece of bacon and devour all three one after another. When you are done, you pick up the pan and tilt it up to your mouth, letting the hot bacon grease slide down your throat. A wide grin cracks the edges of your mouth and you retire to your bedroom feeling completely fulfilled.
