The bacon thing really frustrates me. Bacon slices are getting way too dang thin, I need to go to the butcher counter for the fresh sliced bacon to get actual thick cuts again.

And you have to look out for ones pumped full of lots of water.

idk about what's available in your area, but are a variety of brands that sell "Thick(er)" cut bacon. They're often a better buy per-pound in my area (NJ) than the equivalent "regular" sliced bacon.

That's not even getting into the insanity that is Peter Luger's bacon.

Costco has great bacon, sliced fairly thick (though not as thick as you'd get from a butcher)
