Hmmm, even cooked, they look surprisingly like raw meat.

I can see it, though: I mean, salt enhances flavor, fat always makes things tasty... I guess it's disappointing in a way that it's not *more* noticeable that it's bacon, in there.

It would be interesting to give one to someone who didn't know what it was (and didn't have a bacon prohibition) and see if they could taste the bacon as bacon.
