About FULLY COOKED REAL BACON BITS
Kroger Fully Cooked Real Bacon Bits are a dried, ready-to-use bacon topping product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger store brand. This product is labeled as "real bacon" to distinguish it from imitation bacon bits made from textured soy protein, which are a common alternative that visually resembles but does not contain actual pork bacon.
The ingredient list is minimal: bacon (cured with water, salt, sugar, sodium phosphates, and sodium nitrite) and smoke flavoring. The bacon is real pork and follows a standard curing process. Sodium nitrite is the curing agent providing preservation and the characteristic cured flavor. Sodium phosphates contribute to water retention during processing. Smoke flavoring, rather than actual wood smoke, is used to provide the expected bacon smokiness in the dried, crumbled format. The product is categorized under salad dressings and mayonnaise in the USDA database, reflecting its common use as a salad topping.
Allergens include pork (not a regulated major allergen in the U.S., but relevant for halal and kosher dietary restrictions — this product is not halal or kosher). Per 100 grams, this product provides 357 calories, 42.86 grams of protein, no carbohydrates, and 21.43 grams of fat. The very high protein content relative to fat makes this one of the more protein-dense pork products available, a result of the drying and crumbling process that concentrates protein. No allergens under FALCPA are present. This is gluten-free and dairy-free based on declared ingredients.
