Spa Mom Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Last night I was in walmart and I always buy Oscar Mayer Microwave Bacon it is about $2 something a box. I noticed they had some other boxes and had changed the thickness of the bacon. I picked up the box of the one I usually buy (not the Thickcut) and when I checked out it was .75c!!!! I went back and bought the other 2 boxes they had. So I got 3 boxes of bacon for $2.25 less than I box usually is. If youve never tried microwave bacon it is great. No mess and nothing cooks away like regular bacon. Ready in about 20 sec.
elena_398 Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 lol. Thanks. Its amazing the items you can find at Walmart that they don't advertise. Even in store.
momof2many Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 oh wow... I am really gonna have to check this out. The family requested subways Chicken bacon ranch sandwichs from subway, funds are tight this month, I had planned on coming up with a homemade version, this is so the icing on the cake! I love this stuff!!!
teebee Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 oooh, good one. I was just there today. I'll have to look next time
mywarmbluefleece Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 Oh I like those! I am not lazy but sometimes it helps to have bacon at the ready.
momof2many Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Went to look for it, and none to be found. I was dissapointed, but I think Walmart really is one of those YMMV to the extreame. Also, blue fleece, nothing to do with lazy, bacon is messy to make. You either make it stove top and get popped and have grease on the stove top or you make it micro and have tons paper towel... either way, yucky...
jadedmomof2 Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 It was probably almost expired, which is the reason for the clearance. Alot of grocery stores will do that.

That's what I thought but the experation was way out there. What I like about the microwave bacon is it is not messy. And it doesn't cook away. Buying it by the pound may be a little cheaper but most of it cooks away, so basically the price is about the same, with no mess.

The grease goes into the bottom pan and totally drips off the bacon instead of the bacon cooking in it. It takes longer than frying it but way less mess, you just have to make sure that the bottom pan has an edge or lip on it and can hold the grease.
