Two things I stocked up on for the pandemic: Potatoes and real bacon bits from Costco. The bacon bits came in a Costco-sized bag, which means “suitable for a huge family with many hungry teenagers.” When I got the bag home, regained sanity, and realized the bag’s enormity, I portioned it out into tiny plastic tubs that I froze…lots of them.
I’m cooking more than usual and bacon bits keep stepping up to the bat. Mac and cheese getting boring? Bacon bits! Scrambled eggs today? Bacon bits! And, of course, with just about any meal from the 15 pounds of potatoes we worked through: mashed, baked, soup, home fries.
The pandemic has changed so many things. Cooking and eating are certainly among them.
Great sign for bacon lovers.
Who can pass up bacon?
Bacon bits, oh the memories. We always got some at Costco too and ate them with just about anything. I haven’t thought about them in years, they don’t sell them here.
This made me smile. It sounds like you put those bacon bits to good use. Everything goes good with bacon.
My husband loves bacon bits … I don’t like it so much …
But before the pandemic time it is always good to have something in the freezer!
I think we are eating about the same as normal. Maybe a few more treats!
Bacon is the Candy bar of Meats!!!!
