Bacon Day

About Bacon Day

National Bacon Day is celebrated December 30th each year. Don't make the mistake of confusing it with International Bacon Day, that takes place on the Saturday before Labor Day.

The holiday was created in 1997 as a way to take a break from celebrating the traditional winter holidays.

The founders recommend eating bacon while viewing movies that feature actor Kevin Bacon - or films that have the word "bacon" in the title.
