It was expensive. Then the wife of a friend told me to buy Costco pre-cooked. I did and it was great. You get at least five times as much bacon as the grocery store stuff for the same price. this is the same thing we get when getting the precooked. It is good and only takes a couple of minutes in the microwave to have great tasting bacon with little to no cleanup. TM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was marked down considerably from regular sliced. But they started jacking the price up until it was no longer a bargen. Fascinating that what used to be considered discards has become "prime". Just like chicken wings... they used to almost give those away. Now they are broken apart and each piece is called a "wing" and they're the most expensive part of the bird by weight. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt pork, picnic shoulder, beef tongue, even corned beef used to be dirt cheap. Baby back ribs used to be trash, now they seem to be the most sought after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as he gave it to her he told her that he was going to have to start charging for it because people were eating it themselves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t go to Costco but I do go to BJs which is the same kind of store. I never looked for it there. I’ll have to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
