     The bacon from Leroy is very uniform,  always delightfully the same.  Nine inches long and 3/16 of an inch thick.  It is as though it was sliced with a Globe Foods Bacon Slicing Machine set on 3.  It is always 70% lean and 30% fat.  It seems to have a hickory smoked maple taste, only better.  The frequency and the mechanism of the shedding is not known.  It is thought that 4 slices are shed every 24 hours but it timing between sheddings is unknown.  Even with all the unknowns the bacon is wonderfully appreciated each time it is encountered.

Joe if you see ol' Leroy please send him over my way. I am sure I may have seen him a time or two but he was not shedding at the time. I will be watching though. Bill
