Bacon?

[mdono]

Is there a certain brand of bacon we can eat? any suggestions?

[bluelotus]

Wellshire farms has yummy bacon....they have a website which you can order from. Also, some stores, like whole foods and harry's carry this brand.

Personally I opt for the Turkey Bacon. It has less overall junk in it (Especially MSG) and is better than eating pork. But, I also understand to each his/her own.

I like Applegate farms turey bacon.

Oscar Meyer is gluten-free

[bluelotus]

Sorry, forgot to mention that Wellshire farms makes a turkey bacon as well...their meats are very good, but can be a bit expensive. I too have heard that Oscar Meyer is gluten-free, so they are always a cheaper fall-back.

Yes, I don't remember the name.. but I was reading the ingredients to one of the bacons and it said that it had soy sauce in it. I am sorry I do not remember the name, but if I were you, I would check all of the ingredients just to be sure.

My baacon does not have ingredents Well besides.. get this.. bacon

Sreously.. if i am buying somthing like beef, that should not have ingredients.. and it DOES... I just dont buy it. Bacon usally has nitrates and one other thing that Im not recalling right now.. but never anything like soy sauce, I perfer to never buy it with all those additives.

I like Oscar Meyer Center Cut. Less fatty.

I always read the label - bacon has a ton of ingredients, seasonings, natural smoke flavor, msg, sugar, etc etc etc. Gross! I usually get the organic stuff at my store - Coleman's makes one that is nitrate free...

I did have to ask a butcher once when were getting some of that thick stuff they have in the meat counter - he had to go into the walk-in, get another box, and brought it out to show me (very nice of him, BTW!) It was fine. I did play roulette on some bacon at a restaurant recently (in a moment of weakness) and did not get sick. But I don't usually do that anymore, too risky.

I believe the bacon that has soy sauce is called Farmer John's, sold just in California. McDonald's bacon, which I'm not sure is really bacon, has wheat starch. Other than that, every bacon I've checked has been gluten-free.

Farmer Johns' sausage also has soy sauce and wheat attives.

Stay away from Farmer John products

Kirkland maple flavored bacon has gluten also. I tend to buy the uncured bacon as nitrates can cause stomach cancer and I feel I have enough going on in my tummy without adding nitrates! So, I get uncured bacon, ham and hot dogs. I love the Wellshire Farms peppered uncured bacon. Wellshire farms puts a smart shopper label on all their products with gluten-free for gluten free, LS for low sodium, etc. It really helps!

what are nitrates, exactly?

i have Oscar Mayer in the fridge right now, but it curls up too much in the pan! i like it *very* crispy. i'll have to try something else next time, thanks for the info!

[Kasey'sMom]

Here's a website that has an explaination of nitrate/nitrites.

I usually take Applegate Farms, Organic Turkey Bacon and cut in half & then cut it lengthwise. This makes strips that look more like regular bacon and are easier to get crisp!

Thanks for that website! When I clicked on eat at the top it took me to a page where they list all kinds of food. I clicked on eggplant and it gave colored pictures, descriptions, and properties of the eggplant as well as recipes to cook them. They do that for all the listings.
