“Meat candy” does not sound very enticing, at least not to me.

    Gross. We have to get over this ‘convenience’ packaging of stupid food items in plastic. Just like the peeled fruit in plastic wrap, this is straight up harmful.

      Sure, if by “get over” you mean support legislation to heavily regulate the use of plastic packaging. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter what we do, as long as it’s more cost effective to continue to use plastic, companies will.

    You might could even post this in Mildly Infuriating as all that packaging is just gonna go in a dump somewhere or end up in the ocean.

      Dumb idea…start mailing all the garbage back to the companies that produce it. Attention of the CEO. I’d love to see thousands upon thousands of packages flood companies with the garbage they make.

    I guess it’s a great marketing gimmick to hook people who have more money than sense lol I’m pretty sure buying a pound of bacon at the store would use a lot less plastic and cost much less though

    Fedia isn’t showing me the picture, but if this is candied bacon, it’s super delicious, and I could totally see it sold like that.
