I think there should be more options for ac-blam!-ulating bacon without slaughtering pigs, similar to the variety of ways to get steaks, leather, and kabobs without slaughtering cows. It doesn't need to be quick and easy, but hopefully more interesting than a few wishing well tosses a day and mindlessly exploring Mount Banon for 600+ bacon at a time, to keep the game fun while working towards those quests.
Some ideas for a new way is:
A new temple- maybe spider related for Charlotte's Web
A new exchange center
A new pet that gives bacon at level 6
One of the above as an option to get uncured bacon and then a recipe to turn it into bacon.
