A Short History of Bacon
Bacon has been around for thousands of years—its roots trace back to ancient China around 1500 B.C., where salted pork belly was first cured. The practice spread across Europe, especially in Roman and Anglo-Saxon cultures, where pork preservation became an art.
The word "bacon" comes from Old French "bacun" meaning "back meat." In the Middle Ages, bacon became a staple of the rural European diet, often made in small family smokehouses.
By the 17th century, bacon had made its way to the Americas with colonists. Over time, it evolved from a survival food to a cultural icon—especially in British and American breakfast traditions.
Today, bacon is loved worldwide—not just for eating, but also as inspiration for art, design, and playful creations like your own handmade fabric bacon.
