Man, bacon has become very pricey. So, when I saw that they had
Hormel bacon on sale, three for the price of one, what the heck, I
picked them up. Came to $2 apiece, they only had the low salt
version left. I have never had that brand before. I really just wanted
some to put in my quiche. I don't usually buy that brand of anything.

I was surprised, it wasn't bad and it didn't disappear in the frying
of it, I've seen that phenomenon. You can never tell with bacon
anymore. Iffy proposition.
