We’re Always The New Black™ Campaign Launches With The Reggie Watts
Bacon Experience

AUSTIN, Minn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The makers of HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® bacon have been
pioneering innovations for more than 100 years. We’re Always The New

grease and launching the International Bacon Film Festival, the makers
