I would buy this product over and over again
HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Microwave Ready Bacon was way better than I expected. It comes out of the microwave perfectly crisp in under 3 minutes and tastes great! I love that there is literally no clean up in the microwave. All of the grease stays in the bag so no need to clean the microwave every time ...

Not a home run!!
I like having bacon in the morning and sometimes on a blt sandwich. This product would be great for it you wanted to make a batch just for one or two people. I love how there was no clean up and there was no mess left in the microwave. The product was crisp ( it crisped up nicely)and works for the a...
Customers say
Overall sentiment is mostly positive, with many reviewers valuing the microwave convenience and low-mess cooking. However, a recurring complaint is inconsistent quality—especially too much fat, uneven cooking, tough texture—and frequent issues with the microwave pouch (bursting/exploding) plus changes to packaging that make inspection harder.

Comments about HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Microwave Ready Bacon - 12 oz
I have bought this product for years, but lately the strips have been uneven. Wide at one end and narrow at the other. So they cook unevenly. They used to be nice strips that cooked evenly.

Comments about HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Microwave Ready Bacon - 12 oz
I have bought this twice hoping for better results, but nope. As a single person, I love the concept of 4 slices at a time. I used to buy the full pan with 8 slices, but my store only carries this now. The directions are 2-2.5 min for thawed. I started at 2 and the bacon is partially cooked, but greasy with soggy parts requiring a stovetop finish. 2.25 min resulted in half cooked and 1-2 slices charred. 2.5 min is inedible. I tried this again adjusting my microwave to 80%. Similar results with more sogginess. I really wanted this to work. I did buy it again, but just cooked the slices on the stove vs microwave. The individual packets allowed me to do that. Nice try, HORMEL!

There is plenty of bacon in the box and it appears expensive but in reality it is cheaper in the long run if you do the calculations.
Great Bacon for your BACON!!!
