Turkey bacon isn't made from a single cut of meat like traditional bacon; instead, it's a composite of ground meat pressed into slabs, cured, and smoked.
The selection of turkey meat varies by brand, using both dark and white meat, allowing manufacturers to control texture and fat content for the final product.
Turkey bacon rose to popularity in the 1990s as a healthier option due to less fat and fewer calories, appealing to those who don’t eat pork.
The manufacturing process of turkey bacon involves finely chopping meat, adding salt and preservatives, and processing the meats separately to achieve the desired marbled effect.
