No. This is the opposite of what is true.

Bacon can make
anything delicious. I've baked bacon into chocolate chip cookies which were a revelation of salty prostate-cancer-causey flavour goodness. I seriously can't think of a single thing that bacon doesn't work with. And if you think you can, you probably just haven't tried it.
Cheese on the other hand, always makes things taste... Cheesey. And it's really only used in the cuisine of Europe and the heavily European-influenced Americas. It's almost completely absent in all of Asia, for example. The same is probably true of bacon, but I think you're grossly overstating cheese's importance and underestimating bacon's flexibility.
Bacon FTW!
