Re: Corn Starch and Bacon / Prosciutto

Haven't used it in a while. (We use side pork and put salt on it

outselves.) But when we did, I never noticed (ASD) having any

reaction to the Gwaltney bacon.

Question for those of you who use Gwaltney bacon: are you using

Gwaltney pork bacon, or their beef bacon?

The only store in my area that carrries Gwaltney at all carries

only their beef bacon. And it’s unbelievably salty. And beyond that, in

my opinion it tastes – and worse, smells – pretty bad. I’m thinking their pork

bacon has to be better than that.

I use the pork. I've never even seen their brand of beef bacon.

Thanks, Misty. I looked at the Gwaltney website, which is

singularly uninformative about what products they actually make/sell. I assumed

they must make pork bacon, and my local store simply doesn’t carry it. Now that

I know that product does actually exists, I hope I can get my store to change

their mind.
