It has several advantages over pork bacon, such as being healthier and more acceptable in households that do not allow pork products. When purchasing any chicken bacon, the consumer should read the label carefully because some products contain pork to enhance flavor. In general, cooks can substitute chicken bacon for regular pork bacon when cooking.
In the United States, there are laws and regulations that govern the manufacture of bacon products, including pork and poultry bacon. All ingredients, such as pork, must be on the product label. Typically, a consumer should read the ingredient list because the name may not indicate whether it contains pork. In the United States, the name must accurately describe the product, such as turkey bacon, chicken bacon, or vegetarian bacon. Some US regulations limit the amounts of ingredients, such as sodium nitrate, that can be contained in bacon.
Turkey bacon allows people to enjoy a traditional Western breakfast such as bacon and eggs in regions or cultures that do not allow pork. For example, a person may be living in an Islamic country or in a Jewish home. For people who are allergic to pork, bacon made from poultry allows them to enjoy bacon-based dishes such as a bacon, lettuce and tomato (BLT) sandwich.
