  I like both!  DH and I have started replacing ground hamburger with ground turkey in almost everything.

  Something I figured out if you're making turkey burgers - add a little bit of Worcestshire sauce or chop up some onion in it.  It keeps it more moist and gives it more flavor.

  I actually like turkey burgers. I have never had turkey bacon. Turkey pepperoni is pretty good too. Less grease.  

  I love red meat and regular burgers but turkey isn't a bad second.

  Where's the beef?

  Okay, but for realz I'd say the turkey bacon is a no.go. But I can do ground turkery.

  I also recommend turkey ham on sandwiches.  I can't tell the difference.  But then again, my dad hates ham so I was raised thinking turkey ham was real ham...

  The Biggest Loser Cookbook has a California Bacon Burger recipe which uses turkey and turkey bacon.  I love them!  They taste fabulous!  We have tried to substitute turkey more often and I have used it in Chili, tacos, taco soup, etc.

  I love turkey burgers! So much so that I am not as big of a fan of beef hamburgers now. And I too am a huge red meat lover. I think the turkey bacon is ok, but I am not a huge bacon fan in the first place. We actually sub turkey in for ground beef in most things now (except tacos, turkey tacos were gross).

  Turkey burgers and good but I like the real thing better As for the bacon I an not a huge fan of bacon at all but I really like Turkey bacon. It gets very crispy and has almost no grease

  I don't care for either.

  If I had a choice of having a BLT with turky bacon or no bacon, I'd take none.

  dh and i love turkey burgers and we are HUGE carnivors! i dont have the way to make it near me but it was a weight watchers recipe. it has green onions, ketchup, garlic powder, black pepper, and low sodium soy sauce OH and most important shredded cheese! they are so juicy and flavorful!

   turkey items tend to be bland so anytime you make anything with them make sure to use more seasoning then you would normally use... like tacos and taco seasoning.

  turkey bacon is totally different but I still enjoy both.

  Thanks for all the tips!  I think I'll give turkey burgers a shot.  I think the bacon is something I will never be able to bring myself to eat.  Ever.
