Schmacon, “Beef’s Answer to Bacon,” announces its retail launch in Fresh Thyme Farmer’s Market’s 28 Midwest locations.

Schmacon is whole muscle beef slices seasoned with a proprietary spice blend. It is all natural and nitrate free. A patent-pending process gives Schmacon the crispy finish that rivals that of traditional pork bacon. The result is an easy to prepare, delicious take on a food favorite that provides an appealing option for those who do not eat pork products, those who simply love beef, or adventurous eaters and creative cooks ready to try something new. With less calories, fat and sodium and more protein than most pork bacons, Schmacon is primed to become a not-so-guilty pleasure.

“Schmacon is delicious and different than anything else on the market,” says Howard Bender, inventor of Schmacon and CEO of Schmaltz Products. “We are excited to be available in all Fresh Thyme locations so their customers can now enjoy Schmacon.”
