While it represents bacon, a classic Western breakfast item, it's also used to mean 'something delicious' or 'joy,' going beyond the food itself. Try using it when you want to show off a relaxing weekend morning or crave delicious food.

The popularity of this emoji grew in the 2000s as the meme 'bacon makes everything better' became popular in Western internet culture. So now, it's cleverly used not just for breakfast, but also to express making a situation better or feelings of satisfaction.
