52. I've tried them all, or nearly all and then...

I was checking out the menu of one of 2 vegan restaurants in town when I saw on their BLT you could upgrade for $3 to Hooray bacon. I went to whole foods and bought a package. It looks more like real bacon. I cooked it in the oven. It was thin and crispy and tasted like bacon. It did have a slight stickiness when you chewed it, but I thought it was a 9 of 10. I’ve yet to find a 10.

PS: I tried cooking in a skillet, another method they suggest, but I couldn’t get the slices turned over without them folding up, so oven worked much better for me.

Good luck!
