The catch

One small 43 gram bar packs 600 mg of sodium, about 26 percent of a day, plus 6 grams of added sugar from maple sugar. (source)

The honest take

The Epic Uncured Bacon Bar is a real meat snack built mostly from uncured bacon and pork, and the label reads clean with no nitrates or nitrites added and no seed oils. The catch is salt. One 43 gram bar carries 600 mg of sodium, about 26 percent of a day, and it also brings 6 grams of sugar from maple sugar, which keeps it off a strict Whole30. At 170 calories for just 8 grams of protein it lands closer to a savory bacon treat than a serious protein source, so reach for it when you want a portable paleo friendly bite and can spare the sodium elsewhere.

Someone who wants a shelf stable, paleo friendly real meat snack and does not mind a salty, bacon forward bite.

You are watching sodium or you want strict Whole30 compliance, since the added maple sugar and 600 mg of salt rule both out.
