What's Healthier- Ways to cook Pork vs. Turkey bacon?

Asked by BBSDTfamily (6839points) September 23rd, 2009

Just wondering which is healthier, b/c I do not want to lie to my husband about this! I refuse to eat any pork at all anymore so we eat turkey bacon here. He thinks cooking pork bacon on paper towels in the microwave is healthier than cooking turkey bacon in a skillet with a little bit of butter. I hear turkey bacon is healthier than pork, but how much healthier? When they’re cooked these different ways, is turkey bacon still healthier?

(The reason I asked about these two specific ways is b/c these are the ways we cook/used to cook them- turkey bacon only tastes like pork bacon if it’s cooked in a little bitty bit of butter. But we dry them both on paper towels.)
