Mostly fat!
Bought a 375g package of Carver's Choice thinking it looked fine in the package, only to find it was three-quarters fat and very little meat. Have had to trim off meat pieces from heavy fat and try to piece together in the pan an approximation of two slices each for two people. Outrageous!
Middle of the road
This is not the highest quality bacon and its reflected in the price. This is not gourmet bacon but a poor mans utility bacon. . You pay for what you get. When it's on sale at Giant Tiger I pick up a few packages for the freezer. I use this product for baked beans etc. The trick is to take your time and find the leanest packages as the meat to fat content are far from uniform among packages.
We thought we would give it a try, the taste is ok.. IF you can find the meat. Most of the product is FAT so althought the overall price was ok.. by the time you see what you get you are paying FAR too much for the edible product. Wouldn't purchase it EVER again.
I should have known that a product this poor would fall under the Maple Leaf Foods banner. Bought 3 x 375 gram packages and couldn't believe my eyes. I have never made a point of weighing out products but this time I did. As it turns out 75.3 % of the total was fat. As with" ALL" Maple Leaf products, the past several years have seen a remarkable decline in the integrity of its products, which can only be attributed to the total lack of integrity of Maple Leaf Foods. Good Luck in the future as I will now re-check all labels to ensure that they do NOT come from Maple Leaf Foods. Sad to see any products named after our Nation clearly place short term profit ahead of long term loyalty. Shame on you!
