canning bacon

[xenagirl92]

Now this is something new. I can't imagine bacon being kept or preserved in a can  Man has canned some of the strangest items and I guess if they can can meats in soups and other meats such as, tuna and chicken-then why not bacon. I guess it would be safe to assume something such as bacon would be next. Not sure yet if I would like this idea, however, I will be willing to try it at least once  !

I have heard of it. Have not tried it though.

I keep some on hand. it is great out camping, using in the motor home or just in case at home. I would rather have fresh,, but there are times it comes in handy,

I have heard of canning all kinds of things, but never of canning bacon. Sounds very strange.

you 'can' it to save it later to cook up all crispy

I've heard of something similar called bacon jam (or marmalade) where you cook bacon and onions and add brown sugar and spices so that the end result is something like a spread. You can put it on your hamburgers or spread it on crackers or whatever else you want to put it on. Yum! I heard it was really delicious and one day I am going to try and make it as a treat. I love bacon but don't buy it a lot as I am trying to eat healthier.

I've never heard of it, but I'm pretty sure you can can any kind of food.

You might be able to do, but would you want to eat it?
