    Real bacon, because we eat it about twice a month. We eat low sodium bacon and cook it in the microwave so it isn't so salty.

    I don't mind the taste of turkey bacon, but I can't stand the smell of it so I just don't cook it.

    But when it comes to sausage, we prefer turkey sausage.

    Turkey and chicken bacon is NOT bacon. They are simply Turkey and Chicken jerky.

    Only PORK can be called bacon.


    I will ONLY eat real BACON. If you are a man and eat turkey/chicken 'bacon', you need more testosterone.

    If you are a woman and eat turkey/chicken 'bacon', we cannot kiss anymore.

    Bacon is God's bookmark.

    I admire your passion but, isn't it all the same?

    no because if it was my eggs would look like this

    Real bacon. Nice thick slab bacon with some pepper on it.

    Don't forget to save that bacon grease too. Its good stuff

    I buy uncured Bacon at Whole Foods......it's delicious! I've found eating whatever I want in moderation is easier to stick to.

    I'm not even going to try turkey bacon. Somehow that thought just feels wrong and besides, if pork bacon is cooked until crispy, it only has 30 cals each. I think.. anyway, I love my meat. :)

    Not understanding why Turkey bacon isn't real?? I eat it.. if it's the only thing i eat, I will still poop.. so based on those scientific facts, it has to be real!!

    I used to like the other stuff but now it's much too salty for my tastes except on pizza..

    Not that I eat pizza because I'm on MFP to be healthy and the health police would come and arrest me and I am a law abiding non pizza private diary having citizen of MFP-opolis...

    ok.. I'm going away now.. *whispers* yay bacon.. *cough* and pizza

    What about Beggin strips? Would you buy them for your pet if they came in Turkey, as a healthier option?
    I do buy them for my dog...he loves them

    While it is real as in a physical object, it does not, nor shall it ever, earn the honorific title of "bacon."
