## Spin-Off Appearances

### *Bendy in Nightmare Run*

The cans of Bacon Soup appear in the mobile spin-off, *Bendy in Nightmare Run* as the main and only collectible items found in all four playable cartoon levels.

## Trivia

### General Facts

* The item is a reference to theMeatly's favorite food - bacon.
* Interestingly, the soup is actually based on the real-life soup of the same name. Additionally, there is a food day for Bacon Soup, April 18th. And ironically, this was the release date of *Chapter 2*, and according to theMeatly, Sammy Lawrence's birthday.
* There is also another description that reads "*Eat with fork*", requiring consumers to eat the soup out of the can with a fork.
	+ This may be a reference to one of theMeatly's comics where he suggests "*Complicated tip #572: eat soup with a fork*".
	+ Henry, however, is assumed to drink the soup like a soda/pop can as he does not have a fork with him at all.
* According to theMeatly on Twitter, he said that Bacon Soup does not just taste good but is also good for everyone's souls.
	+ Also, he mentions a similar description.
* It is revealed that Bacon Soup can still taste good despite being left for 30 years, according to theMeatly on Twitter.
	+ This is likely because the soup is canned, and therefore prevents it from turning bad.
