Yes... oh yes, I would love to eat from their menu. They told us that the Crew get to vote on menu items they want and since there is a high percentage of Asian and Indian members, they had a lot of yummy foods listed, and totally different from upstairs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvetwater Posted August 5, 2022 #53 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) When we were on X and NCL we ate curry with our eggs and bacon for breakfast. So good. Princess last year had congee with all the toppings and spiced tofu/chickpea curry on the breakfast bar. At home I tend to use left over Pakoras (both homemade and shop bought) which are Indian spiced fritters with runny fried eggs and bread or make up congee in the morning when it's cold and serve it with soy sauce and meat.

As we all know there is not nor has there ever been a bacon shortage. It's a shortage of bacon at the price Carnival wants to pay. But that is nothing new. They've been rationing bacon for years. They're cutting back on food in other ways too - I don't think I've received a whole baked potato in the MDR on any of my 3 cruises since the restart. Don't get me wrong, for the most part I love Carnival's product - but they have seriously cheapened their product in the past few years and cranked it up to 11 post COVID. We had trouble getting bacon here at home for a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kroger's we shop at, is constantly out of ALL varieties of bacon, even the pre-cooked. But it can't last forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nybumpkin Posted August 11, 2022 #58 Share Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) We just disembarked Magic today. Bacon was always available in the MDR for both breakfast and brunch, but it alternated by day at the Lido buffet. It's not as if we lacked for options, though.😃 Edited August 11, 2022 by nybumpkin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsweets Posted August 12, 2022 #59 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Bacon has not only been a shortage but the quality is always changing and many times is better. On one cruise a month ago the bacon was “THICK” slices and wonderful and last week it was nice regular home-styled slices with a wonderful flavor. In both cases it was t Lilly I would have found bacon as good in my own kitchen. Who knows what the next bacon trio will find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvetwater Posted August 22, 2022 #61 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Only saw bacon once on the L i do on the Glory this past week. I skipped a few breakfast days but it certainly wasn't there each day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigereye Posted August 23, 2022 #62 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Velvetwater, we were on the Glory last week also and the day that they had bacon it was terrible quality. Really fat. Maybe they are trying to kill passenger's desire for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iria64 Posted August 23, 2022 #63 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Bacon was available on the Mardi Gras buffet every other day although they did have someone serving the bacon to try to limit how much you could take at any one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robc1972 Posted August 23, 2022 #64 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I just wish they would actually cook the bacon. Bacon is supposed to be crisp, not that soggy mess they try and pass off as cooked bacon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you guys call this Canadian bacon? I don't understand the cut down on bacon but there being more smoked salmon on carnival. I like both but salmon is pricier.

jetsfan58 Posted August 23, 2022 #69 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I am glad I never really understood the whole bacon thing? It taste good but everything that taste good is not good for you. When I do get bacon I get a few slices and leave some for the person behind me. I have literally seen people hold up the breakfast buffet line demanding 10 more slices of bacon! It's about enjoying our cruise adventures, indulging a bit while still taking care of ourselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe for you lol. I’ve seen people hold up the line for more stupid things than just bacon. don’t judge people because they like bacon. It’s not for everyone. 🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
