"Meat candy" does not sound very enticing, at least not to me.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

How many Americans would eat all 5 in one sitting, though? If you put 5 in one pouch, maybe you should paper-wrap each slice to slow people down. Or at least put a note on the label :
110 calories per slice
550 CALORIES IN PACKAGE.
Or would that just normalize the concept of eating it all?
I actually found a thing of bacon jerky in the convenience store I normally stop at for some Jack's Links. I think the bag was like $10, but it was only 340 calories. Bought it out of curiosity, downed the whole thing and then fell asleep. It was pretty decent.
As I stated in another comment, I didn't bother to check the nutritional information and didn't really care at the time. I think it was Jack Link's brand or similar, so you can look it up yourself, I might snatch the bag out of my office trash bin and check later, probably high in sodium and sugars or something.
If I cook a pack of bacon there is never any left, even when they were 500g and not this pathetic 375g where they probably include the packing in the weight
