When I first heard of bacon salt, I thought, "I must have this thing." Sadly, at the time, it was only available in the northwest. But thanks to woot.com, a few months ago I got some.
Unfortunately, the "salt" part of "bacon salt" turned out to be the problem. By the time I add enough bacon salt to clearly taste the bacon, it's just too salty (at least, in most of the stuff I normally eat). There's one or two "once in a blue moon" dishes I eat that can benefit from it, but the bottles I bought will expire long before I use them up.
And today I spotted bacon salt in the spice section at the local Dillon's (a regional chain that became part of the Kroger Collective a while back). Thus, I can now buy it easily...but no longer want to. Sigh.
