I have made an impossible discovery!

I have found bacon that does not taste good.
I admit it isn’t exactly a premium brand, I admit I don’t eat bacon that often.
I cooked this bacon up and it was far too maple tasting and far less smoky tasting. Chewy and sort of sucked.
I should have read the label better “artificial maple flavored”

Even my dog didn’t like the small piece I gave him. He kind of chewed it and went “Meh” then walked away.

I grew up in a town with an Oscar Mayer plant so Oscar Mayer was the only bacon I ever had until I moved away from home. I didn’t like bacon.

I'm going with ponyo. The taste may be off with the artificial maple nonsense, but it still should have crisped up nice.

Thing is it didn’t crisp up much.
First two pieces I took off were under cooked no question. Second two stayed on a long time and didn’t crisp up much at all. Stayed chewy and crummy.

Sorry you got tricked by "artificial maple flavor"
I hope your fanaticism for meat remains in tact.

Long time ago bunch of guys I worked with used to hound me to get an Xbox, just wasn’t my thing. A game came out that allowed cross play PC & Xbox. I think it was Shadow Run but I could be wrong.
It required me to make an Xbox live or whatever account. During the creation there was a name generator that asked a few questions and gave suggested names. All were two word names, first was something like Fanatical Red and I thought I don’t like Red much, clicked next on Red and Meat came up.
The rest is history....

Lol buying bacon from hotdog people = insta fail
Schneiders and Maple Leaf are meh.

I usually get the extra thick cut in the 1KG package. Not sure who makes it though it might be Mitchels.

Meh. Bacon. With an egg and cheese sandwich, Taylor Ham is better. With eggs and home fries, canadian bacon is better

You couldn't be more wrong but in America, everyone is entitled to their opinion regardless of how wrong it may be.

Now a BLT. There is no substitute for bacon there.

Everyone has to try Taylor Ham as the meat in an egg and cheese sandwich before claiming bacon the king of the breakfast sandwich.

for us Canadians, peameal bacon > regular bacon.

peameal bacon is actually a sweet pickled pork loin and slices need to be fried. Chubbs can be baked.
