Turkey Bacon

... doesn't taste anything like bacon. In fact, it tastes foul no matter how much barbecue sauce you pour on. Why do people eat this stuff?

(Sorry, just did a fridge cleanout-and-eat-what-you-find. Ick. Not even the cats will touch this stuff)

Even my brother's dog "Dawg" won't eat it and he eats anything! He has to, he's huge and weighs 95 to 100 lbs!

Hey! I love turkey bacon. I even prefer it over pork bacon.

If you don't like it, don't buy it.

Nothing containing the word "Lite" can be considered beer.

As I so often do, I defer to the late, great Mitch Hedberg:

I prefer it to pork bacon as I tend to rip the fat off regular bacon leaving little behind.

Blue Light is spelled "LIGHT", is it ok? It really is one of my favorite beers, especially on a warm day.

And this coming from a guy that also likes Double IPAs, Stouts, and hates almost all "any flavor of citrus" beer

If you can find an Irish or British food store, grab some "Back Bacon" from there. Bacon on that side of the Atlantic tends to be cut deeper and from a meatier part of the pig.

That looks delicious! Much better than the stuff we get that has more fat than meat.
