Description:

Vegan bacon.

This is a personal opinion, but, ICK! Salty, rubbery, tears apart when you try to get it out the packet, need to burn it before it can become "crisp". I'm afraid, despite being a happy vegetarian for 14 years, powerfrau thinks this fake bacon is a dud (and the same goes for fake turkey slices or fake ham slices...fake deli meat just doesn't work, IMHO). On the plus side, the fake stuff probably has a lot less sodium (not to mention fat and cholesterol) vs the meaty stuff.

Also, how it appears to have 1g carbs, 1g sugars, 1g fibre I do not know! 1+1=1? I guess there must be rounding errors in their calculations.
