But that can be taken one of two ways. Some will find it a little over the edge health-wise while others will fall head over heels in love. As its apt name gives away, the Bacon Weave Taco is a taco-shaped shell that has been formed out of weaved bacon strips. Created by Nick of Dudefoods, the Bacon Weave Taco is then filled with scrambled eggs and topped with green and red pepper. Of course, the fillings can easily be substituted or elaborated on. Relatively easy to make, after weaving the bacon, the shell forms its shaped by being balanced on a kabob in between two beer bottles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Bacon Weave Taco:** The trend of creating taco-shaped shells out of weaved bacon strips, offering a unique and indulgent breakfast experience. - **Scrambled Egg Fillings:** The trend of experimenting with various fillings for breakfast tacos, allowing for customization and personalization. - **Creative Breakfast Presentation:** The trend of presenting breakfast dishes in innovative and visually appealing ways, enhancing the overall dining experience. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can explore new ways of incorporating bacon into menu items and experimenting with creative breakfast presentations. - **Fast Food:** Fast food chains can seize the opportunity to introduce bacon weave tacos as enticing breakfast options and cater to customers looking for indulgent morning meals. - **Cooking Equipment:** Manufacturers of cooking equipment can develop specialized tools for easily weaving bacon strips and shaping them into taco shells, simplifying the process for home cooks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pancake-Based Breakfast Taco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-egg-and-cheese-pancake-tacos.md) - [Protein Breakfast Tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-breakfast-tacos.md) - [Breakfast Taco Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breakfast-taco-kit.md) - [Hearty Breakfast-Centric Tortas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-egg-torta.md) - [Tex-Mex QSR Breakfast Tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toasted-breakfast-tacos.md) - [Protein-Rich Breakfast Tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-meat-breakfast-tacos.md) - [Bacon-Packed Tex-Mex Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taco-bell-bacon.md) - [Stuffed Quesadilla Breakfast Tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuffed-breakfast-quesadilla.md) - [Savory Waffle Tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eggo-taco.md)
