Some marriage disagreements are serious.
Others are… about bacon.
I’ve always said regular bacon and jowl bacon taste exactly the same. They’re cut from different parts of the pig—belly and cheek—but to me, smoky is smoky, salty is salty, and delicious is delicious.
Alex, on the other hand, will fight for jowl bacon’s honor until he’s red in the face. He’ll make his case with the kind of passion most folks reserve for politics—rich flavor, tender bite, worth hoarding in the freezer. And every time we restock, plenty of you prove him right—stocking up on jowl bacon by the armload, sometimes in the dozens of pounds.
And so, the debate goes on.
Me on one side, Alex (and half our customers) on the other.
The only thing we all agree on?
Bacon, in any form, never lasts long here.
Are you team regular bacon or jowl bacon?
