A bit of bear logic is in order here.
Truly wild bears (which don't get to eat human stuff) are 1) not automatically attracted to any food smells, and 2) likely to be spooked by human odors. Because we think bacon smells strong and attractive, we may assume a wild bear is attracted to it. They might investigate from a distance, but they're very unlikely to be food-attracted unless prior experience has conditioned them to be that way. In areas and camps occupied repeatedly by hunters (who are careless about food disposal) it's possible for bears to get conditioned to seek food in a hunting camp. Once a bear tastes something it likes, their brain never forgets it.
This is why I'm fanatical about not tossing out excess uneaten food, or placing trash where a bear can access it easily and get a taste. I don't like to actually cook meals in a hunting camp. I rely on freeze dried meals and I eat 100% of what's prepared. Packages get sealed after use. Trash is kept inside my tent in a small but heavy-mil plastic bag. Do NOT burn food trash in a fire, as it will not destroy it completely. All my foodstuffs are kept in the tent. I use urine and human scent around camp as an invisible barrier that bears have a strong tendency to avoid. I want to do everything I can to make it unlikely a bear would ever investigate my camp or food. I've heard it said that storing your food 100 yards from camp is the best way to lose it to a bear....and I agree.
