10 Cities That Eat The Most Bacon In America

Top 10 American Cities That Eat the Most Bacon

10. Atlanta, Georgia

Atlanta, Georgia

It’s no surprise that this major Southern city is in the top ten list. Bacon is huge in the Southern United States.

9. Fort Worth, Texas

FortWorth

Forth Worth was once known as leading cattle center of America. Now it is the one of the top bacon-eating places in the whole country. This isn’t the only place in Texas that loves its bacon, however.

8. Charleston, South Carolina

Charleston

Technically all of South Carolina loves bacon, but I chose the capital of Charleston to represent the state. One of the largest hog producing states is right next door in North Carolina, so there is a lot of supply nearby to feed their massive appetite for bacon.

7. Houston, Texas

Houston

Another big Texas city makes the list for eating the most bacon. However, this still isn’t the last Texas city on this list.

6. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Philadelphia

The city of brotherly love is a huge lover of bacon. Maybe they should change their name to Bacondelphia.

5. Chicago, Illinois

Chicago

Gotta love Chicago! A huge meat loving population resides in the Windy City, once known for controlling the flow of goods all across the country, especially livestock.

4. Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore

Baltimore and Washington, D.C. are actually linked together in this ranking. This large metro area on the East Coast eats a lot of bacon!

3. San Antonio, Texas

SanAntonio

San Antonio is perhaps most famous for the Alamo and the San Antonio Spurs basketball team, but it tops out on our list of Texas cities who love bacon.

2. Los Angeles, California

LosAngeles

Los Angeles is the second largest city in the United States so it makes sense that a lot of bacon would be eaten there.

1. New York, New York

NewYork

The Big Apple is also apparently the Big Bacon! Topping off our list of the cities that eat the most bacon, New York will be hard to displace.

All credit for this list goes to the fine folks at the American Meat Institute.
