I bought regular (pork) bacon at Trader Joe's yesterday. About to test it out now. It has no sugar or nitrates. I looked for beef bacon, but none. I can't find that, anywhere. I've been eating turkey bacon for years, and really prefer the taste, but I'm willing to try the additive-free pork.
I've been craving grains like crazy since I got back from my vacation, where I ate with no abandon. My weight has been up and down, still not in the "danger" zone, so I am not sure what is going on, except that I've been sick with sinus stuff and this often makes me want comfort foods, like bread and bagels. I've given in, mostly, although all whole wheat stuff, except for the pancakes DH made yesterday morning .
And what are coconut aminos? I see this in almost all of the recipes in the Paleo cookbook I bought. I assume they add fat to make you feel full. Really don't like the taste of coconut and I have no idea where you would buy them. I've made the recipes without this addition.
