I pay about $2.25 for a 12 ounce package of Jennie-O turkey bacon. Way cheaper than the real bacon in the same store. I’ll buy about 4 packages a month. That works out to about $3.34 a pound.
A couple times a year. I like bacon, but to be honest my breakfast meat is usually sausages or pudding. It can be too salty and overpower the meal.
hangs head in shame
Or you know, don’t care a lot for it.
I used to eat bacon much more, when I was a kid. Once I started to buy my own food, I decided that bacon had no place in my food budget. It’s not something I really cared about, and would prefer to splurge on some ice cream (also a rare buy) or some other meat cut than in bacon.
2-3 times a month in a club sandwich, or crumbles in a salad. Very rarely for breakfast with eggs.
I like bacon: am in the eating it one-to-three-times-a-week bracket; but not to the almost-fetishism point that some folk seem to display. Feel that if I were sentenced never to eat bacon again – though still allowed other meat products – I could live with that, without great trouble.
That said: picture is got, that bacon is for many, pretty well uniquely delicious and tempting. My niece, in her early teens, had an idealistic impulse to go vegetarian, and kept it up for some months – but she was “undone” in that, by very greatly missing bacon; and, acknowledging same, went back to omnivore status and practice.
I voted “a couple times of year”, assuming “couple” doesn’t really just mean “two”, but “a few”.
Not that I don’t love the stuff, but I don’t make it at home, and my usual go-to breakfast place has these killer spicy Italian sausages, and I usually have them with my eggs. Those, I have maybe twice a month. Of course, there might be a false dichotomy in there somewhere, but that’s my story.
I don’t hate bacon, but I am not fond of it either. The only time I eat it is if it comes on a sandwich and there isn’t a non-bacon sandwich listed on the menu. I used to pick the bacon off and throw it away, but now I’ll usually just eat it.
This is a good point. There’s bacon, and then there’s bacon. The stuff I’ve had in England is vastly superior tp anything I’ve had in the US. Our bacon actually smells a lot better (cooking) than it tastes.
I found a place here that makes their own back bacon (or “bacon”, as the British call it), and slices it to order. Good stuff, very lean. The American style bacon that we usually get is made locally and is far leaner than anything you can get in a package. I buy it by the 5 pound bag and divide/freeze it. It lasts about five weeks at our slice a day per person rate of consumption. Still, that’s getting up to 25 pounds/year each.
I rarely eat bacon. I really do like it a lot, but I don’t LOVE it the way a lot of people claim to, and I know it’s not great for me. I’ll get it every now and then at a restaurant. Even more rarely we’ll buy it and make it at home.
I first had bacon in Boy Scouts, and my preferred method of prepared bacon is in the “very chewy” to carbonized state, since that’s the standard of most boy scout cooking. Usually it’s in the middle ground of not-burnt-but-crispy. If I can fold my bacon in half with no effort, I consider it not sufficiently cooked.
Oddly enough, as someone who is not bacon gung-ho, that’s exactly what I love about bacon, and use it primarily for: its fat. If they just sold tubs of bacon fat, I would buy that.
I hate the taste and mouth-feel of bacon, so never.
I buy a pack once a month. I would buy much, much more if I could afford it. I try to only use it for seasoning instead of eating it whole slice at a time.
Yes, I’m British. This may explain my bacon-eating. 
It sounds like I better stay off American bacon should I visit.
