Apparently it's International Bacon Day - not to be confused with Bacon Lovers Day (August 20th) or National Bacon Day (December 20th). And you are only allowed to celebrate with #Bacon, not Back Bacon or Peameal Bacon. Follow the rules and no one gets hurt.
Here's a public service announcement from the Canadian Pork Council explaining why reducing our meat intake is unhealthy. I trust them...

How much meat do we eat?

Good Morning #Canada
I hope you're waking up to a scrumptious smell from the kitchen because it's National Bacon Day. While you're waiting for it to finish cooking, here are some facts to salivate over:

- Canadian Bacon, aka Back Bacon or Peameal Bacon, is a Canadian invention. It's also healthier than regular bacon, with far less saturated fats
- 42% of Canadians prefer their bacon crispy while 49% enjoy it limp. I assume 9% eat it raw?
- Winnipeg, home of the Bacon Centre of Excellence, is the Bacon Capital of Canada
- Canadians consume over 50M kilos of bacon annually. I ate my 1.25 kilos this year.
- Canadian Bacon, the movie, was a box office flop, only earning $178K on a production budget of $11M
- The average weight of a pig prior to processing is 111.2 kilos
- Canadian producers exported 18.6M kilos of cured bacon and 202K kilos of back bacon
- There are over 14M hogs in Canada
- 82% of Canadians add bacon on their burgers
- Kevin Bacon is not Canadian

My dog is (not really) training as a service dog.

This is her alerting me that she has detected bacon, and that I should lie down with the pan just in case it turns out to be dangerous.

Yesterday I pulled up outside my clients office, got out of the car and all I could smell was frying bacon from the pie manufacturer down the road. #MmmBacon

Today I pulled up outside another clients office, got out of the car and all I could smell was Styrene #UrghStyrene

The highs and lows of being a trainer.

It's National Bacon Lovers Day, not to be confused with Canadian Bacon Day celebrated in March. That confirms how important #bacon is to Canadians but there's more:

- We have a Bacon Centre of Excellence in Winnipeg
- 8% of Canadians love bacon more than their spouse
- Canada is 3rd in exports of pork worldwide
- Each of us consumes more than 15 kg of bacon each year.

It's all true... I read it on the internet...
