Bacon is the least bad that pork gets outside of being turned into a properly seasoned sausage, but it's something that should be contained within a sandwich with other more neutral flavors that themselves get seasoned by the salt and fat from the bacon.

Also all the bullshit hype about it was literally just a marketing psyop trying to drive consumption of an otherwise pretty niche cut of meat by turning it into some meme identity. Although it also probably found fertile ground because bacon, being already seasoned, is probably the most rich and flavorful dish a lot of suburbanites ate growing up since that bar is literally in hell - if their typical breakfast was like some shitty whitebread with butter and an unseasoned egg or a bowl of sugar kibble, then the salty and savory piece of probably half burnt meat on the plate was quite possibly the only flavor they were exposed to.
