Bacon Salt... the best thing I've discovered!



Recommended Posts

So I am 2 wks post-op and started the mushy food today. A few months ago I was shopping for dinner (I miss cooking real food) and noticed something called Bacon Salt in the seasoning aisle. So last week I was buying my baby food type foods for my week 2 and remembered the bacon salt for my mashed potatoes. It is fantastic! The one I found has no calories and is low in salt and gluten free. I have been sprinkling it on everything, my cream of chicken Soup, baby food, and today in my refried Beans. Being Hispanic I know that the only way to make authentic refried Beans is to use bacon fat. Well of course that's a no-no now so the bacon salt added a great authentic flavor. Unfortunately I got full so quickly and couldn't even finish my 1/3 cup serving. So now I'm looking forward to eating the rest for dinner.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to make a bacon Protein Shake, lol. :frown:

My mom found, and gave me, some ham bouillion that she found in the hispanic section of the supermarket. She said it is great when making split pea Soup, etc. Sounds like the same idea as what you found! I'll have to try that too!!

I don't keep Kosher but I don't eat pork, so this is something I definitely plan to try!

Thanks for the heads-up-

Where do you find the bacon salt ? I've tried a few markets and can't seem to find it.

Kroger and Albertson's carry it in North Texas.

Thanks for posting that link! I ordered the gift pack for my husband....well it's really for me, but I had to think of something else to get him for Christmas, and he will be tickled to death.

Is it actually made from Bacon? I looooove bacon but my husband doesn't eat pork. I'll buy it anyway but I might have to hide it!

It's vegetarian and even Kosher. There is no real bacon in it.

If you have high blood pressure, make sure to get the low sodium types.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
