Bacon is the back and sides of a hog that is salted and dried or smoked; usually sliced thin and fried.

Petunia Dursley used to cook bacon and Harry Potter was often made to fry it.^[1] Bacon sandwiches were a comfort food of Ron Weasley's when he was particularly hungry.^[2] Bacon is also a flavour of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans.

Bacon is one of the components of a BLT, a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich.

Bacon was also usually served in the Great Hall during casual meals as well as at the Welcoming Feasts.^[3][4] In 1991, Harry Potter's breakfast bacon was knocked to the floor of the Great Hall when owls dropped his new broomstick onto the table.^[5]

An owl may be willing to eat bacon rinds if offered.^[6]
