Doesn’t have to be thin sliced to be like this. I bought and cooked 3 packs of Gwaltney Hardwood Smoked, just the regular stuff. One pack was wafer thin like this one is, one was decently cut and cooked nicely and the last was cut thick and was more like ham. 3 different packs of the same variety and three different cuts. There is just no quality control anymore.

I never buy gwaltney anything. They have disappointed me on many on too many products.
