NATIONAL BACON DAY TRADITIONS
The good news is the main tradition for National Bacon Day is eating heaps of bacon. Yep, it doesn’t get much better than that.
2 billion pounds — the amount of bacon produced each year in the U.S.
During WWII the U.S. government urged citizens to donate their excess bacon fat to the army. The fat was used to make bombs.
There is a church in Las Vegas called “The United Church of Bacon” and it is exactly what it sounds like.
Bacon contains a nutrient (we know, we’re surprised too) called “choline.” It’s been known to increase intelligence and memory, fight Alzheimer’s Disease, and protect the heart from developing lethal problems. We never thought our favorite food could get any better, but then we learn about its health benefits. Thank you, bacon; you’re the gift that keeps on giving.

The Concert for New York City Part 1
Featuring David Bowie, Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Eric Clapton and The Who
The concert was an attempt to honor the first responders from the New York City Fire Department and New York City Police Department, their families, and those lost in the attacks and those who had worked in the ongoing rescue and recovery efforts in the weeks since that time.
