D'Artagnan's duck bacon offers half the fat of pork bacon with twice the flavor! It is made from thin strips of duck breast that are sliced to attain the look of traditional pork bacon, but this bacon has a completely different texture and flavor. Of course, no nitrates are added to this wonderful, all-natural product. Keep in mind that duck bacon does not become as crispy as pork bacon when cooked and is not microwavable. Upgrade your breakfast to gourmet status while living a bit healthier, too.

Maybe?

By DSW

from Kansas on 3/10/2007

Pros:

Flavorful, Tender

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I liked the flavor and texture of this product, but it seemed to "cook down" quite a bit, so you get much less in the end than you think you will. However, the final product was nice, not as fatty as pork bacon, with a better flavor than turkey bacon.

Great for non-pork eaters

By Marisa

from San Diego, CA on 3/7/2007

Pros:

All Natural, Flavorful, High Quality

Cons:

Short shelf life

Best Uses:

Great with breakfast

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Duck bacon cooks very quickly, has a very interesting texture, but, most important, tastes fantastic. The only caveat is that once opened, you need to finish the product quickly as it has a very short shelf life. Even vacuum sealed, it doesn't last long in the fridge -- a couple of weeks, at best. So buy it, eat it, and enjoy!
