Almost all fat bacon

It used to be good one but last time I bought was sadly bad. There was a bit tiny meat not even it was half but almost everything was fat. And that was all package. Very smart, you don't see that trick until you open the package and you would be surprised. So don't waste your money unless you love to eat fat.

Better than decent, but not great

Tried this bacon for the first time and it seems standard. I do prefer Applewood smoked bacon compared to the typical bacon like this but this is actually a good follow up. If you have the money to spend on bacon, I’d say give it a try. But don’t forget to add maple syrup to it to give it that awesome sweet flavor!

Don't do it! Too much fat and waste!!

This is some of the worst bacon I have ever purchased. There was hidden fat tucked under the bacon to pad the package weight. The amount of extra fat I had to remove in order to get a normal looking slice of bacon was something I have never experienced before. And then when the bacon cooked (oven method) the slices shrank 40-60%.

Terrible bacon

This bacon is cut so freaking thin, you can not take it apart. It is more like bacon crumbs than bacon pieces. I would attach a picture but it’s not an option. I will never buy this again. I’m going to chop up the rest and make bacon bits because that is all it is good for. Taste isn’t great either.

Disappointed

Bacon slices are very thin, not a lot of flavor. Slices are more than 50% fat. For as thin as they are you'd think they would cook quickly but I think due to so much fat, they take longer to cook. Other reviews state that the quality changes often. Won't purchase again if that's the case.

This used to be a staple in our household

The last 3 times I've purchased this item it's just not the same. Smell, taste, texture is off and it's hard to work with. The strips are a mess to get apart and no matter how I cook the bacon...pan fry, oven roast, air fry or microwave it's not good. I've had beef jerky that's easier to chew. A pound pkg cooks down to a few ounces...not a good value for me. I guess I'll try the Hormel pre-cooked.

Bacon is good, average bacon

I bought this bacon the first time recently. I hadn't read the low reviews before but have since. I don't find the bacon overly salty, (I'm a little salt sensitive), consistency in the slices the same as other bacon I've bought. With that being said, I use to buy Farmland. Members Mark shrunk less and produced less grease, pink to white ratio is much better than Farmland. I don't think it has as good of flavor as Farmland though. The Members Mark bacon seemed to be a little tougher. When I check YES I would recommend this item, I will also be telling the person these findings.

No good

It doesn't crisp up very well. Ours had mostly fat in it with very little meat.the flavor is not bacony as other brands, so it's hard for us to even use as bacon bits or in other dishes. We've bought this same pack twice now, assuming the first one was just an unfortunate pick.

Delicious bacon!

Purchased this brand for the first time and we're very happy with it. I had been buying the Hormel Black Label Bacon and it was always hit or miss with it. It either was really good or it had no flavor at all...didn't even smell like bacon when cooking it and the inconsistency in the thickness was ridiculous! We like ours pretty crispy and it was always difficult to get the Hormel bacon cooked just right in the microwave. I'm on my 3rd pack of the Member's Mark bacon and so far all 3 packs have been very tasty and cooked perfectly to our preference.

Bacon is sliced to thick and irregular cuts

The last 2 times I have both Maker's Mark Bacon I have been disappointed in the cut. it has been very thick not classic cut and irregular cuts that make a big difference when it is fried as to how crispy it is. As far as I am concern the price has went up yet the quality has went down.
