Tip - Storing Bacon

You can store an unopened package of bacon in the
refrigerator for up to a week past the date stamp.  Once
opened, sliced bacon can be refrigerated for up to a week.
Vacuum-sealed bacon can be double-wrapped and frozen for up
to a month; slab and loose slices of bacon don't freeze as
well.  Always defrost frozen bacon in the refrigerator
overnight to prevent excessive spattering and shrinkage when
cooking.
