Happy you love bacon and I admit it tastes good. After my mother passed from several strokes from clogged arteries, I began to see food in a different way. I buy turkey bacon occasionally - sure its not exactly like the real thing but not bad. Only buy it once in a while to avoid too many nitrates. All the white on bacon is pure fat or ribbons of fat. Didn't want to go down the same road as my mom. Sorry to rain on the bacon party and please continue.
