Video: The Story Of Bacon (1965 Hormel bacon documentary.)
Posted by Joe on November 25th, 2008 filed in Bacon Media, Bacon Video, General BaconSee the inside of a bacon factory circa 1965! Found this video, The Story of Bacon, off of Reddit Bacon just now. It’s three minutes long, it was filmed back when pigs were honest, and it comes from Hormel, which means it’s not the most objective bacon documentary you’ll find.
You can find the full 30-minute “This is Hormel” video at the Internet Archive here.
