On Atkins you should avoid any form of sugar, and this includes brown sugar. So nope, it's not 'allowed'. I'm sure there is sugar-free bacon out there, but I live in Germany so can't really help you with names. I'm sure someone in the US will reply a bit later. In Germany, I can find sugar-free bacon if I buy it directly from the butcher.

How can the label say 0 sugar if it has been cured with sugar? I don't get it.

So if it has less then half gram of sugar, is that okay to eat?

On Atkins, added sugar is not allowed. If you want the bacon to be 'legal', it should be sugar free... so no sugar should appear among the listed ingredients.

I would try to avoid the sugar-cured bacons too. I picked up some by mistake on my last shopping trip. I shop at Bi-Lo and they have a store brand that has no sugar.
