Trivia
- The effect of Bacon Grease, as well as its flavor text are puns on the fact that bacon only has caloric value and almost no actual mineral value.
- Prior to V2.1.2, Bacon Grease's effect did not include a shot speed up.
- The "shot speed up" effect was instead "shop speed up", and increased your speed while in a shop. This was probably removed due to players assuming it was a typo.
