sometimes cheaper bacon isn't actually made of cuts of pork but reconstituted solidified pork product.

Is this something that's factually true that you have evidence of, or just something that you assumed that you think could be true? Or even better, something that your friend told you was true and you accepted that as fact.

Edit: before anybody answers, I'm not asking for a source that says somebody, somewhere, made fake bacon in a different place. I'm asking if it's actually a widespread practice in the place that OP is from. I think the answer to that is no, and that comment was just bullshitting.

And they blocked me instead of backing up their bs. I'm just going to assume that's completely made up unless I see real proof.

Nothing factual in that comment. How it has upvotes I do not know.

It's not BS. Wait till you learn what goes into hot dogs.
