Too Bad You Can't Eat It

From Madison.com: So you're lying in bed, waiting for the alarm to go off, when you start smelling the wonderful aroma of bacon sizzling in a pan.
A little strange, since you're the only one home, but totally pleasant nonetheless. How is it possible?
With a new mobile device from the creative minds at the "Oscar Mayer Institute for the Advancement of Bacon."
The Wake Up and Smell the Bacon device plugs into the headphone jack of an iPhone, and when it's activated, the device emits a small puff of the scent of bacon, with the accompanying sizzle sound.
Bacon lovers — and who isn't? — can start applying Thursday to get the device for free; it won't be sold in stores and quantities are limited.
"With nearly two million mentions of #bacon on Instagram, it seems people never get tired of bacon," said Tom Bick of Oscar Mayer in a news release announcing the device. "Oscar Mayer is thrilled to bring the first-ever, bacon-scented mobile device to market, giving bacon aficionados a new reason to welcome their morning alarm clocks."
Bacon fans can apply to win one of the devices each day from now through April 4, by going here.
Those who aren't lucky enough to get a device can still download a free app for the sound of sizzling bacon, along with amusing bacon sayings, or "baconisms."

Some idiot will probably sue Oscar Mayer after they eat their phone.
