Denny’s Baconalia is Making a Return, Let’s Give Away a Gift Card
Today I was at Denny’s headquarters in South Carolina and tasting the second coming of Baconalia. I’d give you the scoop now, but I’m tired and need to sleep off the massive amount of bacon sitting in my belly.
In the meantime, one of you will win a $20 Denny’s gift card if you can leave a comment on this post for me. The only rule is talk about bacon. Not talking about bacon will result in disqualification. Good luck. By the way, I don’t believe in luck. Only bacon…



Sausage > Bacon.
Also, Kevin Bacon was pretty awesome in that last X Men movie. Do I get a separate entry for this comment?
You said Bacon? Well, it’s my favorite food group!
Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
Bacon is good,
Bacon.
I started out liking Kevin Bacon in The Following. Now, it’s too predictable that I’m annoyed.
Also, bacon makes everything better.
I love BACON! My favorite breakfast meat!
Mmmmmmmm…bacon!
You can put bacon on anything and it will taste AMAZING!
If that building were to fall over, I would jam bacon in each and every window, then cover the whole thing in syrup!!! Looks like a big standing waffle!
I am having bacon in my omelet tomorrow morning now.
How can you not talk about bacon? Its what we are and who we will be!
Mmm… bacon…
“Bacon bits are like the fairy dust of the food community.”~Jim Gaffigan

I like to wrap my bacon in pancakes and dip it in syrup. Mmmmmmm bacon.
You know what’s good?
Pork belly wrapped in bacon.
Sprinkled in bacon.
Followed by a bacon sundae.
I wanted to quote Jim Gaffigan’s bacon monologue, but just picking out one line wouldn’t do the whole thing justice. YouTube it. MORE BACON!
Me.MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM…….BBBBBAAAAACCCCCCOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
Mr. Simpson : Mmmmmmm…..bacooonn…!
I’m gonna make bacon out of Dusty Rhodes’ back fat.
Made some bacon last night and ate some for breakfast this morning.
My American Hipster Union ID card is printed on bacon.
before 2013 is over, I’m going to get the word bacon tattooed inside my lip to express my never-ending love. I’m not even kidding. I’m going to do it.
I’m Bacon’ you, let me win!
bacon
I’ll take the bacon, all of it.
is what I’ll order at Denny’s
On my 22nd birthday, my friends and I had Bacon-Patron shots. I can prove with photo evidence if needed.
Bacon makes the world go round! Okay…maybe not…. But it definitely improves MY world!
Every year the last Thurs of Feb my family has our own holiday where we each prepare a bacon dish and judge them “Chopped” style. The winner gets a prize. Leap years we take the whole week and call it “Bacon Vacation”. It’s always fun to sample various gourmet bacons and see what each other comes up with for a dish.
Bacon, did someone say bacon
A lot of times I’ll order a veggie burger at a restaurant, with bacon added to it, just to see the server’s reaction. But I actually enjoy it like that.
bacon with ice cream now thats what I like
I went to a Paleo potluck/ladies night this past weekend and a friend of mine brought 40 pieces of bacon from Denny’s. she said the waitress didn’t believe her when she called her order in.
mmmm, bacon!
If I win this I’ll actually try that bacon sundae which, as much as I love bacon, seems like a horrible idea.
BACON!!!!!!!!!!
No, but seriously….
BACON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Baconzilla will baconify us all with his bacon breath….made of bacon!!!!!
Mmmmmmmm, Bacon. If only it was returning before March 11th.
That’s my Birthday. So Hazzah for free Grand Slam on your Birthday.
My bacon tis of thee…sweet land of porketry, of thee I sing.. It’s where my bacon’s fried, it’s where I find my pride, from every baconside, let bacon ring!
Bacon.
bacon! I want bacon strips.
the Denny’s bacon sundae is so good
Me like Bacon. Bacon taste good. Bacon.
I really want to try the BACON french toast, the BACON LT, and the BBQ BACON balls.

BACON

I think Denny’s needs to add chicken fried bacon with gravy to Baconalia round 2.
Bun put bacon and pizza sauce in blender, blend it up, then make pizza with that sauce! Gives the sauce Beautiful flavor!
I’ve always found the word “baconalia” mildly disturbing. But that doesn’t matter because it still means Bacon.
Bun put bacon and pizza sauce in blender, blend it, and make pizza with that sauce. Make Beautiful flavor!
Bacon got so overplayed in the last couple of years. I’m not the biggest fan of it originally and I like it in moderation so long as it’s with something else, but really, bacon desserts? Bacon doesn’t make everything better and more bacon is sometimes bacon overkill. I much rather have a bacon avocado sandwich with two slices of bacon much more than I would having it with five.
Bacon cures all woes
If I got this gift card, I would get them to make me a peanut butter and bacon burger. Do they even have peanut butter there? Knowing the people that work at my local establishment, I bet if I brought in my own they wouldn’t care.
Bacon. Now go give the card to the freeloaders.
Bacon your browser?
type in bacolicio.us/http:// before the URL and you got yourself a delicious website.
Also, Denny’s is a decent restaurant. One I’d go to if I didn’t have to pay.
Has anyone ever tried Turkey Bacon? I did a few months back… BLEH!
I like bacon.
Bacon bacon bacon. I want to put bacon on my bacon.
Haven’t been to Denny’s in a while, maybe Baconalia will motivate me!
This Baconalia sounds intriguing. I love bacon.
Bacon is like my family
I would like to try the next round of Baconalia, I will represent bacon to the fullest in every endeavor possible. I ate a pound of bacon in 5 minutes last year at the bacon eating contest at Baconfest here and I will improve my status this year! LONG LIVE BACON!
oh and I almost forgot, I made a whole dj routine about bacon too : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew9vDBYjNWk
YAY BACOOOOOOOOON!
Bacon makes the world go ’round.
The most versatile food ever. For breakfast – delicious. For lunch on a salad, chicken sandwich, or BLT? Tasty. For dinner on a burger or rolled up on shrimp? Perfect.

Bacon is good for me!

I’m a bit mystified by people’s love for bacon.

Bacon pancakes, the lazy man’s breakfast. A perfect meal in one pretty package! Great my oatmeal’s not looking so good to me right now..maybe if I add some bacon and maple syrup….mmmmm!
Spaghetti carbonara with BACON is an improvement over the classic pancetta.
My doctor says I should eat less bacon, but I cannot!
I love my bacon, extra crisp please!! Oh yeah!
Bacon is soooooooo good I would eat for every single meal if I could.
Bacon. Yum.
I once made pumpkin pie with a carmelized bacon/crumb topping. Phenomenal combination.
Bacon? That’s one of my favorite foods that end in “con”!
My brother and I were talking recently, and we realized that we have both cooked more than our share of bacon in our time…how much of that bacon actually made it to the table, however…well, that’s just not up for discussion
Show me the bacon!
We love bacon! We went to the Bacon Festival in L.A. last month… Sooooo delicious… You could smell bacon blocks away before we even got there!

I kinda like bacon. I guess bacon is good. I really like breakfast and Denny’s. I know Denny’s is good.
bacon and leek stir fry over a bed of white rice. yumm…..
I prefer bacon as part of lunch in the form of a BLT. Luckily Denny’s offers those.
Onions and bacon cooking up just makes your kitchen smell so good. In fact, one day I’m going to come up with a room deodorizer that smells like bacon and onions. It’s a fabulous smell. — Paula Deen
The one way to get me to go eat at your place is to focus on Bacon. Well played Dennys, well played.
I’m making some donuts this weekend that I found a picture of with maple frosting and bacon sprinkles. Can’t. WAIT.
OMG I justed decided to go check out the new Baconalia menu at Denny’s this Sunday, will be a plus if I won this giftcard! I missed it last year (actually, I was able to try the Maple Bacon Sundae upon request at a very friendly Denny’s right outside of LA when I was on my road trip) so this time around I’ll make sure to have the Bacon and White Chocolate stuffed French Toast (mmmmmmmmm!). Can anyone vouch for their French Toast? Most diner French Toasts taste too leavened, too much like baking powder/soda. Hopefully the bacon will work its magic and hide it!
While there, I might not be able to hold the thought of having the fried red velvet cake balls from their Hobbit menu, if they still offer them! Thanks for the giveaway!
Too many high school kids down at my local Lenny’s ..er Denny’s. (nope, not trying to win, either).
My mom is super crazy, she is the one person I know who doesn’t like bacon! I mean who doesn’t like bacon?!? I sometimes wonder if I wasn’t switched at birth!
Martha Stewart has an awesome bacon pancake recipe…for a day when you don’t feel like schlepping out of the house to the nearest Denny’s or IHOP

Personally I would hit up Denny’s in my PJs rather than break out the pots and pans…sooo lazy.
bacon is good with Sriracha
I’m all about the bacon!
Would love to try the new bacon menu at Denny’s. Bacon Burgers and Sandwiches would be my choices. Thanks for the opportunity!
i love how this kid loves his bacon.
also my husband made me bacon for dinner without even knowing about this post. true love.
Bacon makes the whole damn world go around!
Mmmm…bacon!
I love bacon but I never win these things.
Ever had foreign bacon? It’s so much better than American. Just saying.
Everything is good in moderation. Except bacon. You can never have too much bacon.
I cooked banana sliced in bacon grease last time I went camping. I gained 400 pounds on the spot and took a 13 hour nap, but it was just delightful.
I’d straight kill a man for bacon! I’m serious, I love bacon.
I’ll have a BLT. Can I substitute the L and T for more B, please?
I just read a report that processed meat, inc. bacon increase the chances of cancer. I do not care.
bacon…too many words take away from its ambiance
Bacon is the root of all evil.

michael scott cooked his foot cuz he loves bacon so much
hehe
I like bacon. I like bacon spaghetti. Here’s my recipe:
Ingredients: pound of bacon (the regular thin kind, fancy thick stuff is no good), pound of regular spaghetti, parmesan, italian seasoning, crushed garlic, black pepper, one egg (beaten). Crushed red pepper optional.
Cook up a pound of bacon. Drain it, but SAVE THE FAT!!
Chop the bacon into tasty half inch pieces.
Time it so your pound of spaghetti (al dente is a must for this) is ready to drain just as the bacon is done and chopped.
Dump the pasta back in the pot, put it back on the burner, dump the bacon in the spaghetti, and add about a half cup of the bacon grease. Mix it up.
Add some italian seasoning, lots of parmesan, and lots of crushed garlic, maybe 4-6 cloves (precook it for a little while in some bacon grease if you don’t like strong garlic flavor). Little bit of black pepper, and crushed red pepper if you like. Stir it up again.
Turn the burner back on to medium or so, and swirl that beaten egg in. Stir like crazy until the egg kinda coats the pasta and stuff, and you’re done. Sometimes I like to use two eggs.
Serve with a bit more parmesan.
Mmm.

I sure hope they return with the maple bacon shake. Once I got my friends past their prejudices of “eww, meat in my ice cream?” I got them to appreciate the surprisingly balanced flavor combination for themselves.
bacon is tasty i hope they come out with a good way of balancing bacon and sweet. perhaps just some bacon and chocolate or maple syrup? it would be interesting to go in and be able to try a couple of the baconalia items at dennys.
I joked that I was gonna buy bacon shampoo today, and then I found out it actually exists. The end.
BACON in the morning, BACON in the evening, BACON at supper time…
I enjoy bacon. Especially microwave bacon. Baconwave anyone? Canadian bacon is NOT bacon, nor should it continue to live off the “fat” of its glorious distant cousin. Should be relegated to inferior deli meat where it belongs!
A ton of words rhyme with bacon.
I added real bacon bits to half of the last batch of chocolate chip cookies I made. There wasn’t much noticeable bacon flavor, but the ones with bacon were softer and had a better texture than those that didn’t!
Bacon is a delicious and nutritious part of a meal.
i want a salted caramel brownie sundae with bacon. real bad.
