This is a very tasty canned meat product, good both cold and after heating. Although it costs more than many similar products, its quality and flavour fully make up for that. It tastes best with dark bread and a pickled cucumber.

For several years, this canned meat has been my summer delicacy – especially with lightly pickled cucumber and slightly stale bread. Sometimes in the evening, I sneak to the fridge and eat a piece on its own, without any additions.
-
The lard has an excellent taste and natural ingredients, without any chemical additives. It is perfect for spending long periods outdoors on colder days. My father-in-law says its taste brings back memories from his army days.
-
The portion is large, and the taste is great for canned food. With the addition of bread and pickled cucumber, it turns out really well. It will be perfect as emergency food.
-
The canned meat has a decent taste, although I expected something different from the name 'kiełbasa' – it's more like traditional luncheon meat, bringing back memories of past camping trips.
-
The canned food has a very good taste – both eaten cold and after being heated. It is more expensive than many other products, but in my opinion, it is worth paying more for its quality and taste. It goes best with dark bread and pickled cucumber or with military crackers.
-
The tinned meat tastes good, but its high price significantly lowers my final rating. Calculated per kilogram, it's over 60 PLN, which is definitely too much for bacon, even if it is very tasty.
-
A large amount of meat and plenty of jelly, which I like. The taste is much better than popular canned meats or luncheon meats from supermarkets. Nice aroma, but a bit too salty for me.
-
Delicious lard, easy to spread on bread, suitable for home food supplies due to the long shelf life; practical also for trips on cold days. Contains a lot of salt per 100g.
-
Military lard with garlic works wonderfully with bread and pickled cucumber. It has a long, two-year expiry date, and it might be good even longer. The can is handy and doesn't take up much space. I recommend this product.
-
The bacon is very tasty and spreads easily on bread. It's great as a household supply due to its long shelf life, and also for trips on cooler days.
-
Exceptionally tasty lard, spreads perfectly on bread. Great for home storage thanks to its long shelf life, and you can take it with you outdoors, especially when it’s colder.
-
One of the main advantages of this product is undoubtedly its long shelf life. The can is compact, so it doesn't take up much space in a backpack. Overall, I'm a fan of lard, but in my opinion, this one could be better. The lid from canned bread fits the can.
-
The canned food is very nutritious and tasty, and also efficient – it's hard for two people to finish it at once. With the addition of tomato or lightly salted cucumber it tastes delicious, we always keep it in stock, now I’m also ordering a few more.
-
Sometimes I buy this for my father-in-law. He really likes it. He says it reminds him of the taste of lard from his military service years ago. Best with a bit of salt and pickled cucumbers.
