  • What brands of bacon/hot dogs/sausage can we have?

    I know some have fillers and some don't, we have three grocery stores here and each don't carry a WIDE variety, so instead of going to all 3 stores which I don't think my daughter would do lol, I'll just call up and ask if they have the brands we're allowed!

    instead of the grocery store.... Look for a butcher shop. GUARANTEE they have allowable stuff! Their fresh pork sausage will be ground pork and spices. nothing unnatural or funky to be had. Dont be afraid to ask them what they put in it and tell them that ANY sugar or wheat products added are a no-no. They will help you out. (and you will get fabulous meats!)

    Bacons- usually the low sodium ones are also no sugar. (they are cured differently)
    hotdogs- Ive eaten hebrew national (all beef) and those are fairly safe.

        I just found some Applegate Farms hotdogs and bacon at our Wal Mart - They have no sugar and no nitrates, The ingredients were like...Turkey, sea salt, paprika, garlic and celery juice. So I would think those would be safe. Here's their website... if interested.

          I've never had a problem with Oscar Meyer, Hatfield, or Smithfield bacons. I would imagine for some reason that Oscar Meyer has some sugar in it...but I've never really checked. Just make sure you don't ever get the maple ones. I accidentally picked it up once and didn't notice until after I cooked it up...yuck!

          For sausages, I use Jimmy Dean links and Habersett's. Those are pretty good!
