False packaging

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I purchased your Black Label THICK CUT bacon which was NOT thick cut. When I pulled bacon to cook it was SO THIN it tore apart!!

Thus was NOT THICK CUT it was regular cut VERY VERY THIN!! There should be laws to hold against this kind of rip off!!! THICK cut bacon is NOT so thin it tares when trying to pull out of package!!

Why do you lie & rip off customers?? Definitely a waste of money!!!

Bacon quality

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The original bacon is in a thick package. I purchase 2 packs of thick bacon per week.

And I've also tried the original so believe me I know the difference. It's the only bacon my 14 year old will eat.

Just opened a box of Microwave Ready Black Label Bacon and when I pulled out the 4 pack, bacon was gray color with green spots. Box had an expiration date of Sep 28 2025A 1992.

What happened?

This is the 2d time we have been disappointed with product. First time was when we opened boxes and found bacon to be nearly all fat??

This box of bacon cost us $8.97...A lot to pay, when most of the bacon is nothing but fat??

We buy this bacon every week...and like the convenience of it, but it's get's expensive at $8.97 per box.

Unsatisfied with last 2 purchases of large microwave bacon

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have purchased the above referenced product for the past 10 years

My last 2 purchases have been 90 percent fat.

I do understand changes to product size and packaging but this was extremely disappointing.

Bad product complaint

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Issue with Hormel Black Label Microwave bacon. Opened box this morning, found 4 strip package of bacon was gray looking with green spots.

Noticed the gray color yesterday...relooked this morning...green spots were new this morning. Expiration date was Sep 28 2025A, EST 1992. We had already eaten the other 3, 4 strips packages of bacon earlier?

Threw a wat away and opened new box. This has never happened!

One other issue has happened and have been meant to write about it earlier, so now writing about both issues!

Have opened previous boxes of this bacon and found 3 out 4, 4 strip packages were all fat. I think this i unacceptable when we pay $8.97 for each box.

Can get very expensive!

Can someone please look into both of these issues? Is this a quality control issue at your company?

I have been a loyal customer for years. I have tried other brands and not been satisfied.

Today when I opened my bacon package which was purchased at Walmart, I was shocked the bacon had irregular slices and there were bits and pieces. Totally not happy with that.

Product concern

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I really love the Breakfast Combo with tiny pancakes and sausage Patties. However, the sausage patties have a very off putting color.

They look like they have been boiled. It would be much more appetizing if they were darker, like they were fried. Even some coloring sprayed even on one side would improve their appearance.

I do realize that this is a small problem in the grand scheme of things, but as humans, the appearance of our food tends to make a huge difference in our appreciation of taste. Thank you.

While taking the plastic cover with the bacon there was a small hole in the bag and I was burned. Its painful and red.

I burned my right hand in between my thumb and my pointer finger.

Its a painful place to get burned I am righty and I use my right hand and the picture I took was about 30 minutes after it happen. The area is very tender its painful and it burns.

I love your Breakfast Combo with sausage and tiny pancakes. The only thing I find icky is the pale color to the sausage.

It looks like it was boiled, not fried.

It would be great if you could brown the sausage Patties a biteven if its fake brown color. Thank you.
