Fail.  "Turkey bacon" is not bacon.  Kinda like "vegan bacon":

I have serious doubts about that list. They included OM turkey bacon.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

^^^Note that the samples were limited to those 'near our office in NYC'.  I suspect turkey bacon may do well there.

We've been getting Kirkland bacon these days. Cost effective and pretty good

At one point I would have said there was no bad bacon. Then I bought some generic brand because it was on an insanely cheap sale. There is indeed bad bacon out there. The only thing I think the entire world could agree on... Terrible bacon is a sin.

Turkey "bacon" is delicious, but calling it bacon is a lie.  Fried turkey slices.

These people have done the work for you.  I never even knew Target had bacon.  The local Targets have small grocery sections; we don't have much in the way of Super Targets as do other parts of the country.

I usually buy fresh bacon from a local specialty store, but I'll have to try the Target bacon.  I shop there often because it's right around the corner, has a substantial grocery section (for a Target), and it's always quiet with no screaming kids.

Where do you think the bacon comes from?

Does that mean you're in on this deal?

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
