About Turkey bacon
Turkey bacon is a processed product made from turkey meat, formed or sliced into strips intended to resemble bacon. It is generally pink to brown when raw and browns during cooking; texture and flavour vary by formulation, seasoning, and smoking. Unlike pork bacon, it is made from turkey, though the precise cuts used are product-specific.
It is commonly pan-fried or baked and sold chilled or frozen, often uncooked and sometimes precooked. Recipes and processing differ between brands, so the name alone does not define its meat composition, fat content, salt, or other added ingredients.
