Lots of Fat and Gristle

Member's Mark products are usually very good but this is HORRIBLE! I would give it zero stars if I could. It is mostly fat and gristle. I can't even take it back because the bag tore when I tried to open it and I put it in a ziploc bag :-(

All fat and gristle now

This used to be actual bacon bits with a small amount of fat but now it's ALL FAT, inedible pieces of gristle and mystery bits of something else hard and chewy. Even cooking it doesn't help as you just end up with a puddle of grease. It's disgusting

Not Good. Had to throw away.

Normally this crumbled bacon is pretty good. However, my current bag is filled with gristly, fatty pieces that I can't even chew. I doubt that I'll buy any more. I'll make my own instead.

The bacon is great. It's real as advertised. It's as cheap as uncooked bacon, cents per ounce, you would buy at regular grocery stores. Couple things I didn't like had to do with the packaging. It is incredibly easy to tear down past the ziplock and ruin resealable bag if you use the "tear hear" points. You need to use scissors. Point 2: The part that says "keep refrigerated after opening" is on the top section of the bag that gets removed when first opening. If you forget it used to be there, or someone else puts it away, it's easy to put back in a cupboard on accident.

Extremely Greasy

I find this product extremely greasy and overly chewy. I was looking for more of a bacon bit crunch style, I have resorted to putting them on paper towels and microwaving them and am still unable to get the desired crunch for either salads or baked potatoes. Not very happy with this product at all. Members Mark has failed to hit the mark again.

What Happened to this Product's Quality?

I buy this product at least once a month. It is convenient for meals, recipes and used to be great. The last couple of bags I purchased have lots of gristle, fat and well kind of disgusting. I am so disappointed the quality of this product has gone way down!! Sams Cub please look into this issue.

Don't put in something serving a guest

I thought this was a great value and I use a lot of chopped bacon for several different dishes. Right out of the bag, I realized that this was a mushed together pieces of crumbled bacon, fat pieces and very hard cooked bits of bacon. I tried cooking it a bit to loosen and soften the pieces. I used it in a pasta salad dish and while eating, found a piece that was hard as a rock and had to spit out. I would have been very embarrassed if this was in a dish offered to a guest.

Bacon Bits or Salt Pork??

I wouldn't advise anyone to purchase this. It's more like salt pork chopped up and it's also like trying to chew on rubber strips. There's more grizzle than bacon meat and from the texture, it doesn't taste as though it's fully cooked. Don't be surprised if you have to spit it out rather than swallow it ... can't imagine what it could do to your digestive system. If you're looking for crunchy bacon bits, you may want to buy some quality bacon and make your own.

From bacon bits to bacon fat bits!

I only buy this occasionally, because I am capable of eating it like candy! At some point the Hormel brand (which was always consistently excellent quality) morphed into the Member's Mark brand. The quality is uneven, and the product is very fatty. Sadly, I probably will not buy this product again.

unacceptable

been purchasing this product for years & have watched the quality diminish to the point that I have to spit out hard pieces of fat many times over the course of trying to enjoy a salad. Now to make matters worse, the last 3 bags are packaged so poorly, it has become impossible to open without destroying the bag, making the "resealable" feature useless. I won't purchase this product again!
