For those of you who have been here in Jorsey, this is a Jersey delicacy. And it's the next best thing to Bacon.

You guys have had Egg-bacon-cheese sandwiches, we have a Taylor-egg and cheese. Put that on an english muffin and mmmmwahh

Actually, I'll take this over bacon

I am also a purest when it comes to coffee and absolutely do not understand the maple flavored bacon they sell. However, when curing fish and meats I like to experiment a little with background flavors (like the hint of bayleaf in my recent stuff).

Dont know why the maple flavored bacon tastes so bad (to me) but if a little maple syrup happens to get on a piece of bacon it is still edible.

Yes, IF it is real maple syrup, none of that corn syrup crap!

That's pretty good, cool idea! Kinda looks like something you'd see on a cruise ship if your cabin steward got promoted to chef.
