In response to your question, here's the answer: <br /><br />"Two strips of Butterball turkey bacon contain 2.5 grams of fat and 70 calories (32% of which from fat); turkey bacon from Louis Rich and Mr. Turkey contain 5 and 4 grams of fat, respectively, per two slices. By comparison, two strips of regular pork bacon contain, on average, some 7 grams of fat.[5] Andrew Smith, in The Turkey: An American Story, notes that turkey products (including bacon) contain, on average twice as much sodium as the pork products they replace."<br /><br />So I guess the answer is basically, BUY BUTTERBALL Turkey and don't eat more than two slices =) It is definitely lower in fat but your sodium intake will be higher so I would watch the salt for the rest of the day =)Kristin - GettingItTogetherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09557128057559481299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431871045791647642.post-48985929864132105832010-09-06T00:08:29.107-04:002010-09-06T00:08:29.107-04:00Since turkey is better than beef, how come turkey ...Since turkey is better than beef, how come turkey bacon is more fattening then pork bacon?

Always helped me. <br />Don't get discouraged!! At least you lost weight. :) I gained 2 lbs! Lol! I'm sure it's just muscle mass &/or water weight. C'mon, go back and read the blogs from your happier days and channel that positive energy!<br />I'll pick you at 6:15! xoLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11576318997964617840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431871045791647642.post-89218383638453905472010-08-24T16:44:37.232-04:002010-08-24T16:44:37.232-04:00Kristin, sorry to hear about your setback - especi...Kristin, sorry to hear about your setback - especially after yesterday's exciting news. On the bright side, I know that you are a fighter and you are not going to let this derail you. <br /><br />I just did a quick online search for treatments. Make sure you are alternating between ice & heat, stretching it out 3xs a day, and using an anti-inflammatory (Aleve or Advil) for the pain.<br /><br />Keep ya head up!Zingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888784242097107225noreply@blogger.com
