I fail to see why a person couldn't fry up their own bacon and can it themselves. I CAN see why it would last 10 years  with all of the nitrates and such in it...   ::)

Killjoy! ;)

My Dad swiped a couple of cans of bacon from the USAF (For which he worked) when I was a kid, it was solid slices with no paper separating them, all stood on end...I think it was from aircraft survival rations, excessed due to shelf date coming up, but sidelined by him instead.  Quite tasty!

First impressions...

Better than the pre-cooked bacon from the grocery store. Very toothsome without an excessively salty taste or overpowering smoked flavor.

Perfect consistancy for BLT's right out of the can.  Crisps up in 30 seconds in the microwave.

The processing got rid of almost all of the grease, just trace amounts on the waxed paper.

Quality 9/10.(Strips could be just a TAD thicker.)

Convienience 6/10. (Some of the strips will invariably tear a little when seperating them.)

Even with your review, I'm not sure I'm gonna be jumping at the chance to buy some of this...

Well there were 12 cans in each case.  Having opened and eaten 10 out of one of them, I will report in a few days about the digestive considerations involved here.

Also does anyone know what it means when your vision tunnels down and everything looks red and you can hear your heartbeat pounding away louder than the TV?  Wierd!

I only like my bacon by itself.  I don't like bacon in anything except a BLT.  That being said, Can-O-Bacon sounds gag worthy.  :puke:

I would love to figure out a way to get them included in first aide kits that they use to patch up wounded Muzzies in the WOT.

I'm kidding. That's not me. I would need at least two packages of bacon.

We used to hit K-Mart and get a couple of cans of this before heading out on camping trips way back in the dinosaur days. 

Even with my effed up stomach right now I am psyched! :-)
