[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great breakfast alternative for vegans and vegetarians. The flavor is comparable to real bacon. It’s easy to throw in a skillet or air fryer and is very versatile for different meals.

FAIL FAIL FAIL! Once again, you promised to become an all vegan brand by 2021 and it is now 4 years later and you keep producing this nonsense. SHAME ON YOU and this is nutritionally far worse than your regular cut!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cooking instructions were super easy to understand. Easy to open. I personally do not like the taste or smell of the morning star bacon strips. It could definitely use more flavor and work on the texture.
Tastes good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is amazing for people who love to eat plant based box goods. It really is the best possible plant based option for protein and I really enjoyed it. I think it’s actually better than regular bacon.
Loved this product and would buy again!

Smells like bacon

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So…it smells like bacon. I was interested in trying this because I’ve never heard of such a thing but I think I’m over the curiosity 🥹 it smells like bacon. But I’m not fond of the texture and the look. Packaging wise, lots of bacon for one small package but i couldn’t finish it 😭 threw in an extra star for effort in giving options and because it smells like bacon.
Wow! Surprisingly tasty!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was actually really good! I am not vegetarian, so I was skeptical that a plant-based bacon could be similar to the real thing - Man was I wrong! This tasted like crispy well-done bacon, and I really enjoyed the flavor. Very impressive!
Love

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Morning star farms is a great brand. If you are trying to stop eating pork and looking for a substitute, don’t hesitate to purchase, they taste great. I even make a quick bacon sandwich with this bacon and its very satisfying. You will not feel bad about eating the bacon and its flavorful. Its a quick 2 minutes microwave fix or you can still throw it in the oven if your not rushing.
Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love bacon but don’t eat meat so I was soooo excited to try this vegetarian bacon. I’ve always loved my bacon extra crispy and these strips crisped up so well in the air fryer! The beast part…no grease and fat! Absolutely love these for a BLT!
Smokey and dry.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t know what to expect when I first cooked these. It was my first time trying vegetarian bacon and although it wasn’t great, it wasn’t terrible either. Some things I liked most about this product was the smokiness of the bacon, the crispy texture, it wasn’t too salty and it didn’t take that long to heat up. One thing I didn’t like about the bacon was that there was no other flavor than the smokiness. Another thing I didn’t like was that it dried out a lot when it was cooked. I always add garlic powder to my bacon in general, so I added some to two of the strips to see the flavor difference and I preferred those much better to the plain strips. **I cooked these in a skillet with no grease.**
Okay alternative

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made a sandwich with the morning star farms thick cut bacon. It was filling and good but the bacon kinda melting into the other flavors. It's an okay alternative.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t believe how much this smells and tastes like bacon. Of course, the look and texture is different, but as a vegetarian I don’t mind that at all. Even my meat-eating husband was surprised how much it smells like bacon. Morning Star always does such a good job with their meat substitutes. I just wish companies could figure out a way to get more protein in.
Great meat alternative

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] MorningStar Farms Thick Cut Veggie Bacon is one of the better plant-based bacon options I’ve tried. The strips are thicker than the regular version, which gives them a more satisfying bite and allows you to get either a crisp or chewy finish depending on how long you cook them. The instructions are easy to follow, and I found that microwaving the strips for a minute before separating helps them cook more evenly in the oven or pan. The ingredients are plant-based with no cholesterol or nitrates, so you get the flavor without the guilt, and the packaging is simple and resealable, making it convenient for meal prep. Flavor-wise, it has a nice smoky, slightly peppery taste that doesn’t exactly mimic pork bacon but stands on its own, especially in sandwiches or salads. Overall, it’s a solid alternative that I would buy again.
Is no that bad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly if you’re vegetarian u would definitely love this version of “bacon” but if you’re not then don’t even bother to buy it. Don’t get me wrong though, it taste good and similar of bacon but is texture and the after taste I didn’t like. But otherwise is ok
love this product

Low calorie, healthier, vegetarian option

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a non-vegetarian, this product has the right amount of smoke and salt to emulate the taste of real bacon so overall, I am pretty satisfied! The texture is crispy but lacking the bite that bacon has but I can see why vegetarians go nuts for this stuff. A great substitute for vegetarians and also people looking for a lower calorie option.
