Coconut bacon snacks and salad toppings tend to make popular vegetarian and vegan substitutes for those who do not wish to consume real or fake meat.
Everyday Superfoods' 'It's Not Bacon!' comes in flavors like Canadian Maple and Zesty Cheddar, blending a base of coconut flakes with flavorful ingredients like liquid smoke, tomato powder and spices to emulate the taste of real bacon.
While authentic bacon could hardly be considered a healthy snack, even in small quantities, these crispy coconut snacks make it possible for vegetarians, vegans and even carnivores to enjoy the flavors of bacon. The brand recommends adding two tablespoons of the coconut bacon to everything from sandwiches and bakes potatoes to pizzas, as well as cupcakes for an interesting sweet-savory flavor combination and plant-based protein.
