Yeah I have no idea why people are missing this part. They are ok with beef jerky being sold as an on the go snack, but not this? It’s the same thing.
Yes, I get it. The plastic is wasteful…but it’s wasteful for any other single serving snack item you’re buying anyway. I’m not sure of a good solution to the problem…but having an issue with this but not literally every other single serving snack food is just beyond confusing to me.
I see it ridiculous when compared to products like Tactical Bacon or the Jack’s Links bacon jerky which are probably cheaper (though there’s no price on these shown so that’s just a guess) and have more than 1 slice of bacon in the package. They are also ready to eat straight from the can or bag.
Edit: a 12 pack of these individual things is $26. You get about that much in a single bag of Jack Links for $3. Tactical Bacon no longer is sold, so it’s expensive AF on ebay now. 😵💫
The bacon at the store means you need to buy the whole pack, cook it yourself, clean up. This is a precooked on the go snack like beef jerky.
Paying a premium per slice for the convenience of the snack.

There are plenty of more convenient snacks that are much less ridiculous
I don’t see how this is much more ridiculous than peperoni sticks or beef jerky

My grocery store sells 2kg packs of fully cooked bacon
