Has anyone heard of a kosher turkey bacon product, or a non-meat bacon? Thu Dec 16 11:31:31 -0800 2004 0 avrum goldfein 1 1439917 There are two vegetarian bacon products that I've used. One is Worthington Stripples. The other one is made by Morningstar Farms, I believe, but I don't know what the product is called. It's in the green Morningstar Farms box. One suggestion, if you're planning on using it in a prepared dish as a bacon substitute, as opposed to serving it alongside eggs or something. Unlike regular bacon, it won't retain its texture when mixed in with other foods. It gets a little soggy and mealy. So if you're stirring it into something, wait until the very end of the food preparation. I've used it in pasta recipes that call for bacon, and I add it in right before serving. Don't know how you're using it, so my comment may be unnecessary. Thu Dec 16 11:56:43 -0800 2004 1439916 0 Clarissa 2 1439925 While a bit off topic, I am not a fan of the morningstar bacon. However the sausage patties and links are great even for someone with a treyf pallate.

If you put it on a cookie sheet in the oven it get vey crisp. Only issue is that it is DAIRY. Sandy Tue Dec 21 11:26:50 -0800 2004 1439927 0 SandyW 5 1439985 Good points, but that's exactly why we LOVE to serve it for guests. It's like a Folger's moment when we serve it to them! As for it being dairy, that's usually not a problem b/c we serve it for bfast, though I guess you'd want to put it on a burger? Wed Dec 22 07:56:42 -0800 2004 1439964 0 Deiscane 6 1439986 I have a bigger problem finding things that are meaty tasting and dairy than I do meaty tasting and meat. ;) I'll give the sheetpan trick a try. Msk Wed Dec 22 08:51:22 -0800 2004 1439985 0 Msk 1 1439920 Both Aarons and Abeles & Hyman make something called "Beef Strips" (I think thats what its called). It's very fatty, but delicious. You fry it like bacon. Thu Dec 16 12:57:55 -0800 2004 1439916 0 hanistor 2 1439923 I love the Abeles and Heyman beef fry. It's great on turkey sandwiches and even better with eggs.

Made by a lot of different producers. I always thought kosher turkey bacon was really a simple idea to execute but have never seen it. Empire just started putting out a line of chicken sausages, maybe bacon is next? Thu Dec 16 13:19:34 -0800 2004 1439916 0 baruch 2 1439988 I used to love Beef Fry. I haven't had it in years though. I think that it was made by Hebrew National. (Note: I have no desire to start a "Is Hebrew national kosher debate") Wed Dec 22 09:55:56 -0800 2004 1439922 0 das 3 1439990 Abeles & Heymann still makes beef fry and it's great. Wed Dec 22 10:58:13 -0800 2004 1439988 0 Gene 1 1439926 As an alternative, buy some fresh salmon skin, perhaps with a bit of meat still attached, then grill until crunchy. Bacon-y and delicious. Thu Dec 16 16:09:14 -0800 2004 1439916 0 Jerome 1 1439933 I sometimes use liquid smoke to replace the smokiness bacon would give a dish. A quick Google search shows Colgin liquid smoke is kosher pareve. It's a great addition to soups. Thank you.
