I am just curious if it can be eaten just like ham, or if it HAS to be cooked before eaten.

No way! You can get Trichinosis which is very serious. All meats need to be well cooked.

I made turkey bacon today. The package said smoked but also said to cook it for a minimum of 4 min. Max number of minutes I didnt' catch. You can get very sick from undercooked foods. The turkey bacon will start cooking with little bubbles filling into the bacon as cooking when time to turn it over then will do the same on other side... take it out. It does not need to cook as long as regular bacon but don't eat it raw.

Maybe just one piece. i have a friend whom does this all the time. She is the mother of six children, and starts each day with at least one piece of raw bacon. is it a southern tradition, as she says she started this raised in the south.
She seems to be fine, very friendly, although I can't get by a few nibbles. Boo.

Cook it. In a few minutes you will have the usual disease from eating raw pork. Keep in mind there are several diseases you can get. So Cook it.

Definitely not. You must cook it. Ham is cooked too.

Unless it has been prepared in a certain way it is dangerous to eat it raw.
There is pork shashimi. But the meat is of a special grade.
