There are several theories - courtesy of Wikipedia "Arun Gupta has pointed out how bacon possesses six ingredient types of unami, which elicits an addictive neurochemical response. According to Gupta "the chain lards on bacon" give foods a "high flavor profile" creating a "one-of-a-kind product that has no taste substitute."

Sarah Hepola suggests a number of reasons, one of them that eating bacon in the modern, health-conscious world is an act of rebellion: "Loving bacon is like shoving a middle finger in the face of all that is healthy and holy while an unfiltered cigarette smolders between your lips."

I think it has a primordial appeal - early man was engaged in a dailystruggle for survival,protein and salt were hard to come by so the flavour of bacon fulfills those tasty subconciousneeds.
