Bacon solves a lot of problems as it is, and now it can be a pile of treasure at the end of a bad-gift rainbow. An unwanted scarf might turn into a year's supply of free bacon if you use the right hashtag.

Saturday, December 30th is National Bacon Day, and we'll give you some ideas about ways to celebrate right here in East Texas. As if you needed a nudge.

Need a stocking stuffer idea? How about some lollipops flavored with Sriracha chili sauce and bacon?

Bacon is magic in meat form. Add the greasy strips to any situation, and it'a automatically 100 times more tasty: bacon lollipops, for example? Delicious. The Bacon Cup loaded with hot girls? Even better. We didn't think things could get any more awesome, until now. Guys -- bacon taco shells exist.

Bacon is one of the few foods on this Earth that is perfect and beautiful all by itself, it doesn't need seasoning or melted cheese. However, that hasn't stopped some scientists from trying to make it even tastier...

Last week, a U.K. group struck fear in the hearts of bacon lovers everywhere when it predicted an "unavoidable" pork shortage next year. But now experts say there's no real threat of an impending "aporkalypse" here in the U.S. and that the organization's report amounts to nothing more than propaganda. Whew!

In moments of unbridled honesty, even many vegetarians will tell you how much they miss bacon. Now fast food chain Jack in the Box is riding to the rescue, introducing a new artificially-flavored bacon milkshake. Yes, we said “bacon milkshake.”
