Oh, Elvis Sandwich!
You had me at bacon weave!
Uh, can we be friends?
If these sandwiches
Don’t have bacon, they ought to.
They really ought to.
(Mick Milivojac’s Crazy Bacon Pinterest Board I could eat each pin.)
Why am I just now
Hearing of bacon popcorn?
Please add cheese powder.
Bacon Reviews, listed best to worst:
Roundy’s Regular-Cut Bacon
- In word: It says “gluten free” on the package, which seems funny for multiple reasons … but it turns out that bacon may come in contact with gluten during processing. Still, it’s a little bit funny.
- Nutrition: Click here for the facts.
- Weaveable? Yes.
Wright Applewood
- In word: Delicious. This is a thick-cut bacon. It’s very tasty and has a nice balance of fat to lean.
- Nutrition: Click here for the facts.
- Weaveable? I don’t use thick-sliced in my weaves, but others do. It surely looks like it’d be a good candidate, and it tastes great.
Dutch Farms Thick Cut Premium Sliced Bacon
- In word: Sure.
- Weaveable? Yes
Patrick Cudahy Regular Sliced Original
- In word: ordinary. That does not mean bad. If you really love bacon, maybe this isn’t your bacon. But if you need bacon in a supporting role, this would be an acceptable choice.

- Weaveable? Yes
365 Whole Foods Applewood Smoked Uncured Pork Bacon
- In word: No! It tastes like a faded, pastel memory of bacon – a memory that you can’t quite hold on to, and most of the details have been lost forever.

- Weaveable? Yes
Uh, fuck yeah to the popcorn. (Don’t tell Cindy I said that.)
Your secret’s safe with me. (Although Cindy is literate, right? And has a computer…) Cheers, Trey!
I popped some corn in bacon fat a couple days ago. I smelled like bacon when it was popping. It didn’t taste like bacon. It just tasted like great popcorn. Although, when I got to the bottom of the bowl (which is where the first kernels to pop were), I did get a faint taste of bacon. Thumbs up.
I’m sure you meant “it” smelled like bacon, although if you smelled like bacon … bonus!
