    How do they flavor it and whats wrong with just putting maple syrup on plain old bacon? Is it paper thin bacon or does it have some body to it? Do you cook it till its all crispy or leave it a bit soft? What sort of rashers are we talking about? The almost fat free medalian ones or the normal, big bit of fat along the top style? I need to know these things

    Not too thin, not too thick. Easy to fry over low heat without burning. It's not back bacon, it's not "canadian bacon", it's about half fat / half meat. Made by the same fine folk that bring us Spam™...

      Never heard of it.  But, nothing beats a Canadian breakfast ( pancakes with bacon, bananas and maple syrup ). Especially if the cook has the sense to cook the bananas.  Then it's heaven.  And, caramel bananas to follow.  On pancakes.  I like pancakes.

      I mix mashed bananas into my pancake batter on occasion (that occasion being, i have ripe bananas to use up). Quite tasty...

          Baked beans, with maple flavoured bacon and fried eggs, all served on butter laden toast is one of my excellent meals. However I only serve this about once a year. Oh and a couple of beers to wash it all down, just adds more flavour. :)

                    From my understanding of what kosher is, I would say yes. Maple syrup is made from the sap of a maple tree (a lot of water with a little bit of sugar: 98-2 ratio); the sap is slowly reduced over heat until the water content is significantly lower. So, since the sap does not come from an unclean source and is reduced in a pan used only for that purpose, I think it should be. Also... when I worked at a cereal manufacturing facility, we made maple flavoured wheat biscuits which received kosher blessings from three different rabbinical societies. Tim

                      That stuff's ok in a sandwich, but just doesn't have the same intense, mouth-watering quality of real bacon. For some reason, i just thought of smoked salmon. Not sure why. But now it's all i can think about. Mmmm... smoked salmon...

                              I did think about it, and, sadly to say, what I wrote is about ALL I know of Kosher laws...

                                Sorry, then. I thought it was common knowledge that kosher Jews don't eat pork.

                                      Get some good baby spinach- place in a salad bowl. Take about two-three slices of good bacon and cut it into small pieces. Fry up the bacon in a pan till it is very crisp. If there are a lot of drippings pour some out but its really a matter of judgment. Pour the drippings and bacon pieces over the spinach in a bowl and toss. Add in some crumbled fresh blue cheese and there you have it. Texas wilted salad with blue cheese. Fit for Gods, Kings, and Texans. Richard

                                        That's the recipe for caramel bananas.  Yum, indeed.

                                          That stuff's ok in a sandwich, but just doesn't have the same intense, mouth-watering quality of real bacon. For some reason, i just thought of smoked salmon. Not sure why. But now it's all i can think about. Mmmm... smoked salmon...

                                          I like to make sushi from time to time and normally you use plain salmon, but it's quite good with smoked salmon. (BTW, since I'm Jewish i don't eat pork bacon. I've tried it before though. Didn't think it was that great.)
