Hi! I've been a lurker for a few months, since I'm new to LCHF (just started in March!). From reading the posts in this discussion group, I've received some wonderful information, so I had to pass this along. :)

Jack Links Small Batch Bacon Jerky No. 9. It's a little bag of bacon!!! My guy found it today, and brought it home as a treat for me. <3 So, while everyone else was eating ice cream after the game tonight, I had bacon! 2 carbs in 1 oz, due to the sugar that is used in their process, but totally worth it to be able to carry bacon in my purse at all times.

I had no idea such a thing existed, so I just had to share. :)

    Oberto has a bacon jerky you, it's good and only 1g carb I think.

    The Oberto one is soft and floppy and tastes uncooked. I don't know about you, but my bacon better be crispy or don't bother. Every time I tried to eat it, I kept wanting to cook it first.

    As a point of reference, pre-cooked bacon can be carried in your purse all day as long as you aren't out in the heat without much risk of anything due to the salt content.

    I'll look for the Jack Links stuff though, as that sounds interesting to try!

    This made me giggle because I can only imagine all the dogs in the neighborhood following me around if I was carrying bacon in my purse!!

    LOL, well typically the dogs have a much keener sense of smell..... the men would have to see it since they are visual creatures.

    For the stray men, I think you'd need to dangle the bacon off your bag like a charm. ;)

    But yeah, I spotted the bacon jerky and thought it might be a neat option if I was out and about and needed something.
    Although, I would probably rather carry a pack of Trader Joe's precooked bacon slices instead.

    LOL!

    Yeah that's what I thought too, the oberto was cheap though and on sale, but after eating some I was like, well we could just get precooked bacon. We left it in the hot car for a few hours when at the car show, it was super good after that though lol, all warm and juicy, I'm drooling just thinking about it.
