Because There’s No Such Thing as Too Much Bacon, Get FREE Bacon with Anything on the Menu at McDonald’s First-Ever Bacon Hour

A Whole Hour to Get Bacon with Anything on the Menu—That’s
Right—ANYTHING. One Day, One Hour Only, in Celebration of Bacon’s
Arrival to Three Menu Classics

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–In celebration of bacon’s limited time arrival to the Classics – the Big
Mac® Bacon burger, Quarter Pounder®* Bacon burger and Cheesy Bacon Fries
– McDonald’s is makin’ bacon dreams come true by giving fans even more …
you guessed it…bacon! On January 29, from 4:00-5:00 p.m. local time,
McDonald’s is hosting a first-of-its-kind, nationwide bacon bash called
Bacon Hour. For 60 minutes, customers will be able to get thick cut,
Applewood smoked bacon with anything on the menu, at no additional cost.
And is there anything better than free bacon? (Spoiler alert – there
isn’t).

As if bacon on our three Classics wasn’t enough, now the whole
McDonald’s menu is ready to be bacon’ized. Customers will be given two
half pieces of bacon on the side with any purchase and can add it to
whatever item they wish. It’s an ode to bacon. Filet-O-Fish® with bacon.
Even a Hot Fudge Sundae with bacon. You name it…with bacon.

“When we said there’s no such thing as too much bacon, we weren’t
kidding. January 29, we’ll be upping the bacon ante—the bac-ante, if you
will—and celebrating this glorious food favorite like never before,”
said Chef Michael Haracz, McDonald’s Manager of Culinary Innovation. “I
love bacon. America loves bacon. I really can’t wait to see the crazy
and daring combinations our customers put together.”

And with all this bacon, it begs the question: is bacon the best thing
to happen to the classic Big Mac, fresh beef** Quarter Pounder and World
Famous Fries® or are our Classics the best thing to ever happen to
bacon? Let the debate begin.

But there’s no debating that McDonald’s food keeps getting more
craveable and delicious – from fresh beef Quarter Pounder burgers,
Buttermilk Crispy Tenders, café-quality espresso beverages like the
McCafé Caramel Macchiato, Cappuccino and Americano, and not to mention
the Classics with Bacon earlier this month.
