Any Migros or Coop. Usually come in a two pack and can be found in the cooler cabinet in amongst the normal sliced bacon and bacon joints. (Costs around CHF 4.50).

As Speckwürfeli available in any Migros, Coop or Lidl (I think Aldi as well). But uncooked - you have to fry them up yourself. Basically more like panchetta than bacon but close enough for most purposes.

Easily available in the Migros and Coop sections of the hams and Swiss bacon.
Turn the heat up and fry them till crispy and crunchy - really hardly taste the difference | This user would like to thank summerrain for this useful post: | |

You wont (at least not Coop or Migros).
I just make them myself, slice up some bacon and cook till well done. Drain, place in paper towels to dry and cool. Great on salads or bake potatoes (way tastier than BacOs).

Yeah, any grocery store carries them.
A tip: cook bacon in the microwave or under your broiler. Both keep your kitchen from getting greasy. Broiling is also good because you can make larger amounts.

Or just get your kitchen dirty and clean it afterwards. It's a kitchen, not a decorative item |
