"Meat candy" does not sound very enticing, at least not to me.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

There are TWO of us now!
But yeah, I do love some good jerky. I used to make it, it's fun to do as long as you carefully adhere to food safety rules. Anymore it's a very limited thing for me for health reasons but a well-made bit of jerky is an awesome thing.
I haven't tried this bacon yet, but if it's a bacon/brown sugar thing I likely will, the sum being greater than the parts. But the bacon premise is iffy, depending on whether they are cooking this and/or how much fat they're leaving on it, because you're eating it room temp. Room temp bacon grease, while still delicious in flavor, is still just a lump of grainy lukewarm grease in the mouth if there's too much of it.
Could be great, could be ass. I guess we'll see.
I actually just found bacon jerky in the convenience store the other day. Like 15 pieces in a bag but I think it was something like $10. It was ok, definitely what I expected but nothing more. 340 calories for the whole bag. Didn't bother checking the other nutrional stuff. 6.5/10.
