Some of the "bac'n bits" are vegan - textured vegetable protein + smoke flavoring = no animal products to be found. Neither a fan of bacon nor the vegan lifestyle myself, but it's surprising the number of vegetarians and vegans who never paid attention to this and are suddenly surprised when they can choose to include it in their meat-less diet.
I'd rather be vegan than lose all my toes to frostbite. (And no, I can't just choose to wear them for 6 warm months of the year - there are only about 3 1/2 warm months here)
These aren't so bad
