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
yesterday I described my criteria for determining if something is real as whether or not I can hug it0 -

Bacon I normally will do real (pork) but if I do sausage links/patties I'll do turkey or even soy. Lower calories, sodium, and fat!0

Turkey bacon is not necessarily a healthier choice, and it tastes like poop. I enjoy a few strips of real bacon every once in a while and leave it at that.0 -
I love real bacon, but seeing as I won't cook it becuase it pops and blisters.. I never eat either at home. I occasionally have it at my MIL's house.
Bacon and sausage are staples at her house.0 -
The real thing all the way!! Bacon is meat candy!!0

By the way, calling turkey meat, bacon, is like calling iron cast pan, weightless. Stupid!

Really? Scare tactics? Turkey bacon doesn't come in any other variety because it is processed from various turkey meats. Bacon starts out, as bacon, thats what it is, bacon. You then cure it or you do not. It doesn't make it any less bacon if its uncured.
But here you go. Hormel thick cut bacon:
Cured With Water, Salt, Sugar, Dextrose, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite.
Odd, they don't have to specify different types of meats or machines used to seperate them!Turkey Bacon Ingredients: Mechanically Separated Turkey, White Turkey, Dark Turkey, Water, Salt, Contains 2% Or Less Of Potassium Lactate, Natural Smoke Flavoring, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrate.
Pork Bacon Ingredients: Pork, Water, Salt, Turbinado Sugar, Seasoning (Cultured Celery Juice Powder, Sea Salt).
I think i'll take the pork bacon, thanks.
Uncured Turkey bacon: made by Applegate Farms
Turkey, Water, Salt Sea, Celery Powder, Maple Sugar, Onion(s) Powder, Spice(s)
Stop with the scare tactics people...Worse than Fox News0 -
Turkey bacon has almost as much sodium as regular bacon. I prefer regular bacon.0
