    Turkey bacon just doesn't cut it (either does turkey bologna).

    I figure if I'm being good and eating less of some of the things I love I'm going for the good stuff. If you could only have one beer a week would you settle for a Bud Light? :laugh: :laugh:

    Get center cut bacon, it has about the same calorie count as turkey bacon!

    I like turkey bacon, but only Oscar Meyer. I have tried a couple of other brands, and ended up throwing them away.

    I hate turkey bacon. Regular bacon is delicious and only about 70 calories for 2 slices.

    Love turkey bacon much more than regular bacon. They do not taste the same. So anyone on the fence should try it. I will say that you can't go and buy the cheap brand of turkey bacon as it is usually pretty gross. I usually buy a name brand. If you don't like it stick to lean bacon - from what I've seen lean bacon isn't usually that different than turkey bacon - and if you get 100% lean bacon it may even be better for those people eating "clean". I just don't particularly care for real bacon. Good Luck!!

    I still eat regular bacon. I fry the whole pound and eat two slices with breakfast. I freeze the rest and have it on occasion with a Pam fried egg for breakfast. If you don't have the will power to fry a whole pound and not eat it then don't buy it or consider whether you are really committed to change.

    I have had turkey bacon, but it's not that great to me. I would eat it if it was offered at someone's house, but I prefer real bacon ALWAYS. Why fix it when it's still tasty and delicious?

    turkey bacon is ok. It is not as good as pork bacon, but less calories and fat. I just eat regular bacon. I just don't eat it very often and only eat 2 or 3 pieces instead of the entire package like I used to.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE did i mention i LOVE turkey bacon? haha..NEVER thought i'd like it..my BF turned his nose up to it,and i finally got him to try it,now he LOVES it to :D I like the oscar myer kind.. not the jenny O..i find the its too chewy and doesnt really taste like bacon

    The trick to the oscar myer one,is cook it over medium/high heat for 6mins on each side,and if it looks a lil burnt/brown then its PERFECT! You will be amazed at just how much it tastes like the real thing,but don't under cook it :D make sure its crunchy :D

    I have some in my fridge & your making me wanna go make some,haha :laugh:

    Okay so I just love me some bacon and have been so scared to try turkey bacon - it just seems so weird to me. So tell me what yall think of turkey bacon please and shouId I try it. Thanks for the help.
    Stacey

    I too LOVE BACON! Weird, I never really liked it!! But now I LOVE it! I too have tried the turkey bacon but when you compare the calories, fat etc I found they were almost the same!!! So now I eat the Oscar Mayer bacon.. Maple flavored is DELICIOUS and I think 1 slices is 70 calories=not horribe. Where 1 silce if Turkey Bacon is 35 so times 2=70 calories!! Sooo Ive decided If I really want it, Im gonna have it!!! ;0)

    I love bacon LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
    anyone tried the bacon sundae from Burger King yet?

    I had not even heard that they had a bacon sundae, so I HAD to look it up!! That looks amazing lol, I may try it just for the sake of trying it, I've always wanted to try bacon in a dessert. I checked out the nutrition facts and they are outrageous, but I think I definitely will get it once, definitely won't make a habit of that though, I rarely go to burker king anyway.
