It's not great, but adequate for a sandwich or something.

You're usually supposed to heat it up before you eat it, usually in the microwave, but a skillet would do too.

They're are also fine to eat cold though, and it's a guilty pleasure of mine.

Hell yes - cold is a good guilty pleasure. Heated in the microwave allows you to not have that bacon smell permeating your belongings for a few days.

It’s lousy eaten as is. However if you pan fry it enough to be crispy it’s okay. That’s kind of counter productive but still quicker and a lot less greasy than cooking from raw.

100% what you get at the majority of deli places on a sandwich. They just toss it in a little combi oven and crisp it up quick.

Before it was ever sold in grocery stores, in about 2003... I bought a pack of 100 slices of precooked bacon from Omaha Steaks to take to a beach vacation week with the family.

It was very popular for beach breakfasts and BLTs.

Yea I first saw it maybe 10 years ago and I just shake my head.

Bacon is the one food that you need to do right.
