New Packaging for Bacon? It’s about time!

by Stephanie

Yea for bacon! I am not a big breakfast meat eater, but I do like bacon. I especially like a yummy BLT sandwich with garden fresh tomatoes. What I hate is the way the package bacon. Those packages never reseal, and the bacon just melds together into a single piece of fattty ham that you have to pry apart. Yuck. But there’s hope! Oscar Meyer to the rescue!

Gone are the days when bacon packaging is difficult to open, messy to handle and cumbersome to store. America’s favorite bacon just got better with Oscar Mayer Center Cut Bacon in the new Stay-Fresh Reclosable Tray, a high-quality easy-to-store bacon package that keeps the last slice of bacon as fresh as the first.

Oscar Mayer was the first to bring home the bacon when they introduced packaged, sliced bacon in 1924. The brand’s latest packaging innovation won’t take up additional space in the refrigerator, and its sturdy, easy open/easy close design cuts down on mess by allowing easy access to the bacon slices inside.

Available nationwide beginning July 2007, Oscar Mayer Center Cut Bacon in the new Stay-Fresh Reclosable Tray can be found in your grocer’s refrigerated meat case section. The average cost is $3.99.
