About

"Wait," you say. "Is this just bacon that's been twisted?" Well, yes, Twisted Bacon is exactly what it sounds like — succulent bacon twirled into tight curls. But there's a reason for it besides novelty! The twists increase the surface area of the bacon, ensuring that each bite is even more loaded with pork flavor and are crunchier than ever before! Twisted Bacon is bacon with a twist but no frills beyond deeper flavor!
