Anyone had turkey bacon???

Options
I am fixing "breakfast" for dinner tonight and I decided to get myself some Jennie O extra lean turkey bacon at the store on the way home from work. Has anyone cooked this up and liked it? I'm a little freaked out! :wink: I like "real" bacon SO much, but at 4 grams of fat PER slice, I just can't bring myself to eat it.

I am gonna have an english muffin with jelly rather than french toast with everyone else. I'm also gonna fix some scrambled egg whites and fresh fruit salad. Sounds fairly good . . . Just worried about the darn bacon!! :happy:

    I'd rather eat less of the real thing than eat the turkey bacon. I did not like it.

    Cooking with it in my southern greens as I type! Love turkey bacon and use it almost everyday. I must say I was a bit challenged wih the texture of Jennie O, but there are several good brands out there. You must be aware of the sodium content...

    the fat grams are not the problem....eat the real stuff...just watch the total cals for the day....real is ALWAYS better
