Sneaky, but still good value
They have found a way of incorporating even more water into this product. I always had to pour off a lot during cooking but this time, in addition, I had to pour off lots before cooking, and there was very noticeably less actual bacon in the packet . BUT it is still value for money and I shall continue to buy it regularly.
this is just the job at the right price.
Don't know what all the complaints are .about .I use it as a base to make the most wonderful lentil soup and then blend it all together. It always gives a most glorious smokey flavour while adding huge richness to the soup. There are lots of bit you can do other things with. Horses for courses.
I love this product - amazing value & variety.
Risked this again in my delivery after a long time. Hit the jackpot!! Got a pack with six gorgeous unsmoked gammon/bacon steaks in it. Made some incredible meals and will be buying it again. I quite like the lucky dip nature of this product. Glad the packaging has been improved to be more sturdy.
The original product seems to be coming back!
The original product seems to be coming back! Well, at least I think it is in my local store.... There are still a few packs of the downgraded product on the shelf, but most packs now contain proper cooking bacon again. So, it's pasta carbonara tonight and I'll be making a quiche for a picnic later this week. Thank you Tesco!
Awful
The current product does not match the description. I totally agree with all of those who gave a one star verdict. Off my shopping list.
Not bacon bits. Almost burger!
This used to be excellent. But has been mashed into steak type slices. No good for baking with.

I don't know what you have done to one of your best products it was full of lumps of fat and tasted unpleasent. I really enjoyed using this product in many dishes as the various cuts of bacon gave rich flavour to them.
Full of watter.
No good any longer, full of water, cant even fry it, the frying pan turns to soup, have to wait 5 minutes to evaporate all the water firs before frying, this used to be awesome.
MUSH
Have been very disappointed recently by this bacon. As described by others it is just mush and I will not be buying it again.

Far too much salt/ salt peter even after cooking in stew. Needs to be soaked and fried before using.
