Must have tried some this morning ?
Turkey bacon is the spawn of Satan, given to man by him to deprive them of the goodness that is true bacon.
As we type I have PIG bacon cooking in a a cast iron pan !!!
And it smells great!!!Quote:

I overheard someone in the breakroom the other day saying. "I don't like regular bacon, I prefer turkey bacon"
What's the number to report commies again?
Where did you get the whole bellies? Been wanting to try my hand at some.Quote:

As a note, unless you're willing to make your own all of the time, do NOT let your wife taste real home smoked bacon.Quote:

Don't forget to stay away from uncured bacon too.
Never seen it in there.Quote:

The problem with Turkey Bacon is calling it bacon and pretending its a reasonable facsimile of pork bacon. Much like Soy Milk is not a good substitute for milk, or Boca Burger patties are a good substitute for hamburger ... and Taco Bell is not a good substitute for Mexican food.
Stop pretending its a substitute and then it finds its place, so enjoy your fried turkey strips, your soy juice, boca patties and Taco Bell, just stop pretending they're Bacon, Milk, Hamburgers or Mexican food.
Its not the items themselves, its the deception that makes the world a darker place.
I think it's food blasphemy to put turkey and bacon as a compound item !!!
Trannies are everywhere!Quote:

We were warned, and did not listen.
All five packs already cooked and in the freezer. The wife oven bakes them on baking pans covered in parchment paper. No mess at all, reheat in micro for a few seconds and you always have bacon ready for any occasion.Quote:

Go to your room and think about what you've done!
Making bacon is my favorite activity.
Pigs are my favorite example of recycling. Taking garbage and making it delicious. [Flower]
I saw pork belly slices at Sam's Club in Lone Tree yesterday- a whole BUNCH of it. It was already sliced up, ready to cook.
Turkey Bacon - Bad!
Bacon-wrapped Turkey, good!

Finding it sold as a "pound" seems to be unusual these days. Like the shrinking "pound of coffee", make sure you check the weight.Quote:

Seventh Day Adventists are encouraged to avoid meat and many are vegetarians. Adventist hospitals would be the last place I would be looking for a BBQ. [Flower]Quote:

Try one of these, or just know they exist. You will suddenly like Turkey Bacon a bunch more. (Though I agree, pork bacon all the way, its a travesty these even exist).
