Nothing wrong with "turkey bacon", it's just lean meat pressed into the shape of bacon so you can use it in recipes like you use "pig bacon". Which is also just a word for a cut of pig belly meat after all.


DynaMo, been missing his contributions really. I had some marketing ideas for his health mix. Market to the long trail hikers, the AT, CDT and PCT trails. Hikers on those months-long hikes need easy to carry and portion food, and also mail foodstuff ahead to post offices along the trails. There is also always a "trail days" where vendors set up shop and sell and give samples. You can also mail things to hostels and post offices along the trails who will put "unclaimed" items in a box for hikers to take for free. Hikers often use trailjournals.com and will leave their planned stops along the way for people to send them stuff. DynaMo could probably turn some heads with his foodstuff to those diehards who need good balanced fuel big time and share good items with their friends. Pass it along if you talk to him.
Is there anything "dodgy" in turkey bacon though? I'd look carefully for any weird ingredients like sodium nitrite being in there. Being turkey formed into bacon obviously must mean it is processed aswell.

Try to eat fresh and non processed food in normal doses.
Vegetables (broccoli = win), fruits, nuts, fatty fish and non fatty meat.
It really is this simple.
Bingo! don't eat too much vitamin k in veg like broccoli and cauliflower though.

If you go for fish, you also have to be careful of mercury content. but like everything if you don't eat too much of a good thing you should be fine.
