App Wakes You Up to Sound and Smell of Bacon

MADISON, Wis. March 6, 2014

Want to wake up to the sound of bacon sizzling on the stove with its aroma drawing you out of bed?

There's an app for that.

Oscar Mayer says it has created a bacon-scented app for the iPhone, developed by the Madison-based company's Institute for the Advancement of Bacon.

The company says that to emit a small puff reminiscent of bacon, the user needs an external device that plugs into the headphone jack. The app itself produces the sound of bacon sizzling in a pan.

Oscar Mayer says the aroma-producing device won't be sold in stores and that quantities are limited. The company is giving away 4,700 devices beginning Thursday.

Oscar Mayer is part of Kraft Foods Group Inc., based in Glenview, Ill.

What the! Apparently they have already given all of them away, or it's just an elaborate scam. I received a video at the end saying I wouldn't have a chance to receive one, even though it says they will announce winners until April. WTH? Darn bacon bastiches.:kick:

Heavenly Smoke. Our smoke is born from a blend of natural hardwoods - because angels frown upon liquid smoke.

So, the $ 19.95 plus shipping and handling I sent in cash for this is probably not going to be returned, huh?

I can only sell it to you if you send me a cashier's check for waaaay over that amount, then I ship the item to you and then send you the balance of the overpay via Western Union. Can't be too careful these days, you know.
