As far as many of us are concerned, there’s only one way to wake up properly, and that’s to the sound and smell of frying bacon. You can imagine then, that we’re quite taken with a new app that makes it possible to experience just that, every morning. [Wake Up & Smell the Bacon](https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=824320132&mt=8&ref=protein.xyz) is a scent-emitting alarm clock that brings all the goodness of sizzling bacon straight to your senses, at a pre-determined time.   
  
Launched by American bacon and cold meat company, [Oscar Mayer](http://www.oscarmayerbacon.co.uk/?ref=protein.xyz), the device combines an iPhone app with a companion device, which atomises the delectable, porky scent and emits it into the air.   
  
Unfortunately, like [Pop Secret’s](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2013/12/pop-dongle?ref=protein.xyz) similarly scent-enabled [Pop-Dongle](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2013/12/pop-dongle?ref=protein.xyz), the complete Wake Up & Smell the Bacon experience is not going to be available to everyone. Instead, you’ll have to enter a competition on Oscar Mayer's dedicated [micro-](http://wakeupandsmellthebacon.com/?ref=protein.xyz)[site](http://wakeupandsmellthebacon.com/?ref=protein.xyz) for a chance to win one of the scent-emitting devices. However, if it’s just the sound of sizzling pork belly you’re after, you can still download and use the app from [iTunes](https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=824320132&mt=8&ref=protein.xyz). If you're lucky enough to win one of the devices, you can plug it into your phone, sync it with the app and let the magic happen.
