I will return ....
I have ordered from Bentons a few times, and I will concur that their shipping charges are crazy. If you order 4# of bacon @ $32, I think the shipping to me was $28. I ordered a ham and 4# of bacon, and I think the shipping was $32. So it's like they stick $20-25 for "handling" on the front end. My plan from now on is probably to buy 12-16# of bacon. That way the shipping should average down per pound quite a bit.

If I get bacon at the local whole foods, most of the bacon is actually pretty expensive, so the Bentons is actually not THAT expensive, especially if you buy a bunch and the shipping just goes up a little.
