Just what does that mean?

It's not a flat package it's in a glass.

A glass?

What's more refreshing than a nice, tall glass of bacon...

The whole description of the slices is quite interesting, you don't find ads written like that today

Do a search on Swift's little cook, so many bacon (and fat) ads, very interesting, scroll down in the images and then you run into a very sweet Swift (no fat). Gosh, I don't think butter would melt in her mouth.

That's because they all use the same machinery today for uniform thick or thin. At the time they were competing with butchers hand sliced which could vary greatly.

Um... I don't know...

Curious George got too curious?

Yum yum...

Bacon rule...

Totally unlike diarrhea.

Slicing bacon...

I have always wondered how they slice bacon. When you pull it out of the package, it's all mushy and sticks to the other slices. I would imagine trying to slice it myself and it seemed impossible.

Thanks for posting this. The design of the spinning blade is perfect.

I wonder what they do with the leftover inch or so of uncut material. It it ground into bacon bits? Same question for the cheese.

I wondered why the meat doesn't even quiver when the blade cuts through. It must be awfully sharp, but the sharper it is, the faster it will dull. Maybe the meat is chilled to make it firmer.:confused:
