bacon in space

Saw this on my stat program. NASA is looking to me for information on bacon. Sure I am an excellent source for information on bacon, but it must mean they are planning something really cool.
Searched for “bacon in space” and found some funny stuff.
“It would be cool if we could get robots to grow bacon in space.
Imagine it…endless fields of bacon.Because you can do that in zero gravity. You could sell it for huge
shitloads of money, and there’s no middleman.Could you imagine that…moonpork?
Do you know how badass it would be to have bunches of AIBOs growing
bacon in space? Imagine it…the imagery.”
Damn. I just got the official word that I can’t ask questions about back bacon in space
In space, no one can hear you fry bacon.

I had no idea that NASA had any sort of base in my hometown, but there it is… Now why is the NASA group in Columbia, MD searching for bacon info?

I am thinking it has something to do with how bacon is pretty loaded with calories and flavor while being rather small. Maybe for long voyages? Oh and I am sure a gift of bacon would be a great way to show the aliens we are good peeps
