Denny's brings back fan favorite meal in 'triumphant return' after 10 years - but customers must act

DENNY'S has brought back an iconic menu after 10 years that is centered around a single ingredient — bacon.

Denny's introduced fans to the Baconalia menu back in 2011 and it was an instant hit.

After a 10-year hiatus, the bacon-centric event will return on June 21.

The special menu features seven dishes that use bacon in savory and sweet ways.

Denny's teamed up with the makers of Hormel Black Label Bacon to "elevate its pork-tastic" offerings.

"Many things have changed over the past decade, but one thing has remained the same, and that is America's love of and obsession with bacon," said John Dillon, Denny's president, in a press release.

"We're proud to partner with the makers of Hormel Black Label Bacon and bring our diner fans the biggest Baconalia celebration yet. We are confident guests will love our bacon-crazed menu and keep coming back for more." 

WHAT'S ON THE MENU

Diners can take the traditional route and for the Bacon Slam, which consists of two buttermilk pancakes, four strips of thick-cut Cherrywood bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns.

There is also the Sweet and Smoky BLT&E — a classic BLT that's topped with eggs, bacon jam, and Cherrywood bacon.

Those with a sweet tooth can try the What's Shakin' Bacon milkshake.

The shake blends together vanilla ice cream, maple-flavored syrup, and diced bacon, and topped with whipped cream.

Also on the menu are the Bacon Obsession burger, the Triple Bacon Sampler, and the Sweet Maple Bacon Sundae.

Diners will have to act fast if they want to try the menu as it will only be available through August 29.

SAY CHEESE

Baconalia's comeback may give diners hope for the return of a discontinued sandwich.

The Fried Cheese Melt was a grilled cheese on sourdough stuffed with mozzarella sticks and served with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.

At just $4, it became an incredibly popular, albeit gluttonous, meal.

Unfortunately, it was discontinued just a few after it was introduced.

Fans created a petition to try and get it back on the menu, calling it "the best sandwich Denny's ever made."

"We need to bring this legendary sandwich back for all patrons of America's Diner to indulge in!" the petition writer said.

"I would do anything to bring it back," said another.

"There's nothing better to wrap up a great night than a fried cheese melt at Denny's with my closest friends," another signer said.

Despite the effort, the sandwich has yet to return to the menu.
