Oscar Mayer Creates Bacon Scented iPhone Alarm Clock

This article is over 10 years old and may contain outdated information

Oscar Mayer has created a unique plug-in and app that turns iPhones into bacon-scented alarm clocks.

If there’s one thing that human beings have going for them, it’s the fact that our planet is filled to the brim with tasty things to eat. Oreos, onion rings, chicken wings; these are just a few of the world’s edible bits of deliciousness. Even considering the dip-ability of Oreos or the eating contest potential of wings however, there’s one food item that most sane people recognize as being the cream of the crop. When it comes to matters of tastiness, bacon reigns supreme.

That in mind, the Oscar Mayer Institute for the Advancement of Bacon (best job ever) has recently unveiled a new iPhone app and plug-in that could potentially make meat’s ambrosia a regular part of your morning wake up call. The plug-in works by emitting a bacon aroma that fires off at times designated by aforementioned app. In other words, it’s fashions your phone into a bacon-scented alarm clock.

Now, assuming you love bacon as much as we do, this app and plug-in should be clear must-haves. Unfortunately, they come with a caveat. You can’t buy the bacon plug-in anywhere and Oscar Mayer has no plans to release it to retailers in the future. The only way to obtain it is to enter and win a contest the company is hosting. To enter, one merely needs to fill out a brief survey, at the end of which they’ll be informed if they won or lost. Give it a try and let us know how you do! And then, if you lose, you have our permission to console yourself with bacon. We won’t judge you.
