Normally I buy my bacon from a butcher on the local market. But being at a local supermarket I decided to buy some bacon & bread rolls there earlier. What a mistake.
The bacon was full of water & so thin you could see light through it as I separated the slices. It tasted OK, but, is of such poor quality, that I will not be buying it again.
Yes, that’s happened to me more than once. The bacon leeches water into the pan and shrivels up, all nasty and anemic looking, not very appetising. We aren’t blessed with a local butcher so I sometimes push the boat and pay for the best quality bacon from some supermarkets. Less is most certainly more!
Yes, and the bacon also exudes a sort of white slime that sets a bit like egg white
I’ve tried buying top quality/expensive bacon but even that has the same sort of problem
Have you tried cooking it in a hot preheated oven on a decent heavy gauge baking tray?
The beauty of this is that you can sprinkle it with spicy seasoning, garlic powder or whatever takes your fancy. It’s much easier to regulate crispiness! 
I strongly advise against eating bacon … I’m full of cholesterol and bad for your health. 
Actually I love a bacon butty especially with a fried egg and lashings of brown sauce. Yum.
I had to tip the white water out of the frying pan twice, so that I could fry it, rather than boil it. It cooked half reasonably that way. But it cooked down massively & it was so thin.
Geli, you have just cracked me up with this vision of our very own Morti!
I would imagine her fighting off the “Breakfast Club Boys”!
Oh my … I’ve never looked so good … I could fancy me myself 
Can i did me bread in yer eggs please
British supermarket bacon is a disgrace.
We get good stuff from a Portuguese deli locally or a Polish deli, even more local.
Delish sliced & fried or get a lump and boil it.
Nice one d00d!
I’d all but forgotten that we have a Polish deli in town. We’ll pop in there at the weekend. They sell some really delicious types of bread, might go very well with the bacon!
Just because I’m posing sunny side up … 
That looks like belly pork d00d
This is belly:
Hahaha - I loved the bacon and egg pics of Morti like I’ve never seen her before! - what a cool porcine temptress she is! 
I don’t eat my porcine friends, but if I ever buy bacon for visiting guests, I always buy that “dry cured” stuff. That is gross enough but the “wet cured” stuff which leaks all that salty water into the grill pan is even more gross 
Oh d00d, you’ve made my day! That was great. I didn’t know anyone was filming me when I did that many years ago.
Were you the guy in the back corner in the trenchcoat and beanie hat?
You remember! I grunted; you squealed.
It was your long lens , it frightened me a bit at first.
I’ve booked you two a romantic room in a Britannia Hotel, and ordered a couple of McD happy meals for your sustenance.
