Probably how you cooked it. Turkey Bacon is not Bacon, doesn't taste the same and doesn't feel the same, but it shouldn't be like cardboard. We occasionally use it for a few things and it's not that bad. Not as good as the real stuff, but still enjoyable. Chopped up and mixed with brussels, or other veggies, its a great addition.
Have you tried it that way? It has its strengths and weaknesses. If you try eating a piece of it plain by itself it doesn't hold up well. When combined with other things it can be quite nice. As with all ingredients, it's how you use it. It's very easy to overcook, and not nice when overcooked so cooking it takes some getting used to.

I would never call Turkey Bacon "Bacon", I do call it something else: "Turkey Bacon". Just like a tortilla made with corn is a "Corn Tortilla". Oat Milk/Soy Milk isn't milk... it's "Oat Milk", and "Soy Milk" respectively. And not 606 is not 606 it's not 606.

It’s really not that deep. Obviously pig bacon is nicer. It’s like comparing real beer with one of those weird low calorie beers.
