We absolutely adored this pre-cooked bacon when it was the thick cut. We didn't even mind the crazy price hike for it because it always cooked up so great and had a great flavor. This thinner cut just doesn't taste the same and doesn't cook up right no matter how we adjust our microwave settings. The thick cut is now offered in raw form, but PLEASE bring back the thick cut in the pre-cooked. We have tried the Members Mark thick cut cooked bacon, and the flavor is not good.

The flavor is amazing! We love a thin crisp bacon and that’s just what this is. In 30 seconds you have the best bacon you will ever eat and no mess to go with it. It also freezes perfectly . It’s on sale now so I hope this doesn’t mean Sams is going to discontinue it. I have told so many friends and they love it too.

I had been buying this for our breakfasts for several years, but recently (June 2021) when I purchased it, the package costs more and the contents are way less. The pieces of bacon are like half the size of what they used to be! Not worth the money if you ask me.

The product is good and a time saver. If you take the time to pick through multiple packs you will usually find packs that are better than others. The issue with the product is it used to cost $12.98 and on line it says $15.48 which is a dollar higher than the week before. When you get in the store it is almost $21 a pack at this point. I bought regular name brand bacon at Giant for $3.50 a pound after seeing the price in Sam's. Will continue to boycott the purchase of this product until they price it reasonably again. If a lot of you also stop buying it, you can help speed up that process.

I tried the same brand and style from a grocery store a week before and liked the taste and quality enough to make the bulk purchase. The taste matched but I am a little disappointed in the thickness. The first layer we used seemed spot on the grocery store package. The second layer was paper thin. Wow. Was it a fluke that the top that you can see was different from the inside. I don’t know. I haven’t dug into the rest yet. Even as thin as it got its still an easy and tasty addition to lunch sandwiches and salad. So we will buy again.

I used to love to get the Hormel Black Label Fully Cooked Bacon because it was quality and easy. Now, they're shaving the bacon so thin that you can see through it. It crumbles if you don't pick it up delicately after it's cooked. Also, there used to be a bit of grease after microwaving...not any longer. Not enough bacon to create a greasy spot. Corporate shrinkflation needs to have consequences.

Lately I've been having terrible issues with this product. First thing is that the resealable portion of the package, the backing comes loose. So while the locking portion works, the backing pulls away from the rest of the package therefore leaving your product exposed to air. Second I'm receiving full rows or two of uncooked bacon. I contacted Hormel who swears those portions are not uncooked, however they don't look cooked, they don't look like the rest of the bacon in the package, and after 2 minutes in the microwave still wasn't completely cooked. But they didn't believe me nor did they seem to care. I have two more packages to open and if I find any uncooked bacon I'm just bringing it all back to Sam's and not purchasing anymore.

My hubby & I both love this bacon. No messy splatters all over the stove from frying as with uncooked bacon. Ready in a minute or two for addition to breakfast, or to make a BLT. Also works well in any recipe that uses bacon. We always keep an extra package on the shelf, ready, so we never run out. If you haven’t tried it, we highly recommend it, it will become a favorite.

Love Hormel Black Label fully cooked bacon, but it hasn’t been available at Sams in Tampa, FL area for a couple months now. Smithfield substitute is unacceptable, too smokey and too salty. Anyone know why this has disappeared or when it will be back? Odd that others are posting positive comments in the last few days, it must be available somewhere???? Thanks!!

The first few packages of the MM fully cooked bacon were great. However, the last 2 packages were full of lard from the cooked bacon and stuck to the package. Also, the package states approximately 36 pieces per package, but are consistently only 27 (9 in each layer x3).
