turbo ninja wrote As a Bleeding Heart Yuppie Liberal, I felt obliged to buy some local bacon from the new Kroger in the Brewery District a few months ago. It was from that meat packing company on Greenlawn (I forget their name) so I figured it had to be hella fresh.I cooked the bacon as usual - tender but just a little crispy on the edges - and looked forward to enjoying it with some tasty waffles.
Joke was on me, because apparently it wasn't seasoned or anything. This bacon tasted like very thin pork chops. Maybe that's how it's supposed to taste - THE PUREST FORM OF BACON TRUTH - but I honestly prefer the fake-smoke/pepper/maple/whatever flavor of Oscar Mayer or Sugardale.
So be warned.
The extra thick bacon at Blues Creek Farm in the N. Market is delicious. It should fit in with your bleeding heartedness. I use the thick stuff for cooking; it's probably a little too thick for making bacon slices; you'd want to get the regular bacon for that. YUM.
