Bacon
Bacon in a dream turns on its condition and company — wholesome and shared with clean hands, it is good; rancid, it marks dullness and dissatisfaction. The older books even read it darkly, touching loss of a friend. The dream tends to ask what nourishment we are taking in, and whether it has gone off.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for bacon, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of eating bacon is good, if some one is eating with you and hands are clean.
Rancid bacon, is dulness of perception and unsatisfactory states will worry you.
To dream of curing bacon is bad, if not clear of salt and smoke. If clear, it is good.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of bacon or pork, denotes the death of some friend or relation, and that enemies will endeavor to do you a mischief; in love, it denotes a disappointment of some kind.
