Does anyone else prefer it that way? Bought some from a local locker and just cooked it up tonight.
Too lean for my liking. Probably 75% meat and 25% fat. Excellent taste! Just too much meat v/s fat and I find the meat tough.

75% fat and 25% meat would be more to my tastes.

I love the chrispy fat and just a small amount of meat. Your choice?

I hate fatty bacon and cull 10-20 packages until I find a pkg that I can tolerate.

“Lean” bacon has plenty o’fat!

50/50 for me, fried crispy.

I like lean bacon, too. I don’t want to leave half of it in the bottom of the pan.

Any kind is good to me but if given a choice lean or 50-50%. I love grillades as made in New Orleans. These are like almost 100% lean and are delicious.

You need some streak o lean?

Fatback?

Stole my post, but I'll forgive you this time.

We’ve been thru the fat vs lean bacon before, and actually thought of you as I typed.

Feel special? lol

Yep, I do this too !

Commercially, usually end up buying this one;

For sure. I don’t even think there’s such a thing as bacon that’s 75% meat and 25% fat.

I’ve actually found good bacon @ the local Chinese embassy.

Their thick cut is closer to reg’lar, but don’t get the paper-thin normal cut.

there is no bad bacon just different levels of greatness

This bacon had great taste, don't get me wrong. Just too "meaty" for my tastes.

Maybe the locker made it from a pork roast. LOL!

I like the flavor of fatty bacon when it is cook crisp.

Personally I believe that all cuts of pork is simply a byproduct of getting to the bacon! I'll take it any way I can get it!

50-50 works for me.

And cooked so it's still pliable.

Crispy bacon is for crumbles at a cheap salad bar.

Fume Naturellement

from walmart no less.

How gauche.

PS I get some uncured stuff that comes from Canada, Top Valu, that's pretty decent. No French writing on the packaging though, so I'm guessing they're making it just for us Americans

I.dont cull any bacon.

I try to buy lean, center cut, low salt bacon.

This!!!!!!!! I cut off the last inch of fatty bacon ...and save....to supend above my prime rib cooks.....

Big chunks on lean bacon , about to fall off the slice...gets ate while preparing TO cook ...

Thought I was the only one who did this !
