Bacon Original Recipe Meatless Bacon, 6 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd usually find this in the refrigerated or plant-based meat section, pulled out for weekend breakfasts, BLTs, or as a swap-in for bacon at a cookout. The product projects a nostalgic, indulgent vibe — it promises familiar smoky, crispy flavors while advertising plant-based and organic credentials. Its use of mycelium shaped and flavored with coconut oil, sugar and a listed "natural flavor," plus the likely industrial shaping/seasoning to mimic bacon texture, signals an engineered, highly processed meat analogue.
