What's not to like...
Probably the best bacon bits you will buy. Great on salads.

Not 'Smokey Snaps' or ' BACOs'....
I hoped these would be as tasty as I remembered Smokey Snaps and BACOs which have just disappeared....These taste ok but are very salty....I'm still going to use them in cooking because despite the saltiness I DO like the taste!

Great addition to a salad.
My love of bacon bits goes back to loading them up onto a Pizza Hut salads after a few beers with mates many years ago. I have found them a bit hard to come by in the supermarkets and had all but forgotten about then until I found these recently. I appreciate the they are not bacon and they are probably not the healthiest either but used in moderation, the crunch and flavour hit that they add to a nice fresh salad is irresistible. On the plus side, I do not feel the need to have a beer beforehand these days either.

Not bad but certainly not the best......
31st Aug 2021-----------------I was waiting for this to come down from the £9.00+ prices I've seen and took a punt on this at £3.46 delivered from Amazon themselves.Firstly, it is a big tub/plastic container, 320g. Long shelf life of 06/2023, this will be finished way before then!On to the texture and flavour.Texture:======No different from the ones you can get in the major supermarkets (Bacon Crumbles in the packet), nice and crunchy and no oversized bits.Flavour:======Not too bad to be honest, it is better in my opinion against the supermarket ones, though I expected a better taste from a big brand like Schwartz. It has a nice smokey aroma and smokey bacon taste and certainly will work well with my salads and Potato Salads, there is a slight powdery residue if I am to be critical after you chew on it but maybe that's me being over critical. They don't come near the nice smokey flavours and taste from the American £10.00 brands (124g)you can find on here though very expensive, which I have tasted when in USA and brought some back, they are the real deal but this is a good compromise for the amount you get. Unless of course you have deep pockets, then the US ones found on here will definitely be a spend you may call a deal, however, I would not!The lid has 2 openings, one to sprinkle through the holes or a more open one where you can just heap a load onto whatever you intend to put this on.I have supplied some pics against Schwartz everyday Lamb Seasoning bottle to give you an idea of the size of this item.
