The epitome of nutritional bankruptcy. This includes all of the soft drinks, carbonated or not, sugar sweetened or artificially sweetened. A wonderful, nutritious food acquires 200 calories of fat when fried. It's not really a meat. It's also high in salt and full of both nitrites and nitrates, which may cause cancer.
Microwaved bacon seems drier but is just as high in fat.
It should be used more as a garnish by sprinkling a little on of it on unsweetened cereal. They are not only fried but also have the sugar and white flour we should be cutting back on. They put your blood sugar out of balance and they don't stay with you. You might as well be eating butter. They contain a large amount of added fat as well as lots of salt.
