Bacon has been loved for centuries. The phrase “bring home the bacon” dates back to 12th-century England, where a church offered a side of bacon to any man who went a year without arguing with his wife. By the 16th century, bacon had become a symbol of wealth and community – a food to be shared and enjoyed. That same spirit lives on today.
In 2023 alone, bacon generated $6.3 billion in sales in the U.S., proving its place as one of the most beloved foods in the nation. National Bacon Lover’s Day, first celebrated around 2015, has quickly become a favorite food holiday thanks to social media and the passionate bacon community.
This year, Hi Mountain Seasonings encourages bacon fans to elevate their bacon experience with Hi Mountain Seasonings and try bacon in every meal of the day. Whether a traditionalist or an experimental chef, there’s a Hi Mountain product to match your taste. Celebrate August 20 and every day with Hi Mountain Seasonings.
