  • I agree. The first time I ever tried it was at my sisters house. She was baking it. It smelled soooo good. Then I took a bite. Couldn't spit it out fast enough.

    LOL this is funny.

    It's kinda gross when you think that it is already cooked and formed to look like bacon... But, I like it. I also eat real bacon. I do not discriminate when it comes to bacon. MMMM bacon
  • I'm Australian and we have NFI what Turkey Bacon is. Agree, bacon is from pigs. Thanks for clarifying!

    Turkey bacon sucks.

    Pig for the win. It's not really THAT bad for you, either. I can easily fit it in my macros.
  • I like turkey bacon, please it doesn't shrink up as much.

    So you prefer texture over taste? Is that what I understand? Or you just hate shrinkage?
  • Turkey bacon is just nasty....

    I don't like the taste or texture of bacon. I like Turkey bacon better (as long as it is not overcooked), but I don't care what they call it.

    What the heck is turkey bacon? Bacon comes from pigs. What they should call it is thinly sliced turkey strips. I hate it. It tastes nothing like bacon. If hate when people create things to say its healthier. I would just eat the real stuff more responsibly. Instead of eating real bacon everyday, Ill just eat it every othere day if its not healthy. I hate the creation of turkey bacon.

    it's processed turkey parts meat, with additives that include sugar. so I don't eat Turkey Bacon, I perfer real turkey meat. As for Bacon perfer real bacon, center cut is best, so is thick cut but either way it's ok to eat a slice of bacon, but the entire package wil make u fat. its up to you....

    I don't eat any bacon anymore now that I am vegetarian, but when I was a meat-eater I looooved bacon (the "real stuff" or turkey bacon). Keep in mind, turkey bacon serves more purposes than just a lower-fat, lower-calorie option. Some people happen to like bacon and can't eat it for religious or other reasons. They eat turkey bacon. Everything serves a purpose. If people don't like it they don't have to buy it.

    So when you invite me over to breakfast please remember I dont eat that fake turkey stuff.

    Congrats on becoming a vegetarian. I am really thankful for people like you. You provide a different viewpoint on eating meat. I also thank you for explaining about people not eating it for religious purposes. However, some people just eat it because they were lied to and told that its healthier. Also I am completly aware of the "If you dont like it, dont buy it concept" Im just starting conversation thats all.

    You want toast as well? Oh and how do you like your eggs?
