BLT: 1, 2, 3

What's better than a fresh, crispy, juicy, BLT on toast?? A BLT without the fuss.

Enter Hormel Microwave Ready Bacon. 16 strips in a package. 4 strips in each sealed, ready-to-cook plastic "baggie'.

Just pop a pack into your microwave for 2-3 minutes on High (depending on desired crispness and whether you've been storing the bacon in the freezer). The plastic bag expands into a neat balloon while cooking, trapping any spatter. An absorbent pad (Tywik®) soaks up the grease.

When done, open the bag, remove the bacon, and discard the cooking wrapper. No mess, no fuss.

These aren't paper-thin bacon strips, either. They're roughly the size and thickness you'd expect from your local breakfast spot, with a nice flavor and not too much salt. There's even a pop-open window on the back of the box so you can see what you're getting before you buy.

Simple enough to have when you want it. Easy enough to take to work — and prepare in the company microwave without making a mess. Look for it in your grocer's deli case.
