Bacon as crispy as your pic is disgusting. Danish bacon cooked just enough to form some brown crunch edges is GOAT.

>>9232058
very wrong. You're implying that fat is what makes bacon, it is however the taste of the protein in the bacon cut. You can cut all of the fat off of bacon and it still tastes god like.

>>9232054
It tastes good, it's fatty salty protein with a bit of smoke and sometimes sugar/pepper. Almost everything to hit all your taste buds. That said, it doesn't belong in everything all the time, it has a strong flavor and overwhelms a lot of other ingredients.

Is it just what you call the type of bacon in your picture? Because my pic is what bacon looks like here in Denmark.

brits use that name for it, because they import a lot of danish pigs

here the round non marbled part is called back bacon, the marbled strip is called side bacon
brits eat back, americans eat side

>>9232341
As the other anon guess I'm a britbong, I thought Denmark was more the cut of bacon than the pig. I learned something today. Sad that you eat that fatty stuff though.

>>9232387
The lower fat to meat ratio gives a better taste and texture imo, and I've had both types. How widely available is back bacon in the US, in your experience?

90s films and TV have lead me to believe that Canadian bacon is somehow different, and also round??!

That's just the formed garbage in groceries. True american canadian bacon is a cured and smoked loin from like british bacon minus the side flap. I make my own because I can't find the real stuff.

It wasn't until I left Europe that I realised I was spoiled for choice with all the different varieties of cured meats. Prosciutto and panchetta, I miss thee verily.

>>9232432
nope, Canadian bacon is similar to british style cut, back bthebacon but it is cured and rolled in cornmeal.

I worked at the market this stuff "originated" in as a butcher for 4 years. used to get my buns for the lunches we cooked at carousel.

>>9232054
It's simply EPIC!

>>9232410
>How widely available is back bacon in the US, in your experience?
stores sell both, but you wont find back bacon in every restaurant
sides are more likely to be used as pork chops

>90s films and TV have lead me to believe that Canadian bacon is somehow different, and also round??!
'canadian' bacon is back bacon and cornmeal, as a preservative and a filler
it's most common as a pizza topping, it bakes well for a meat product

Fat and salt. Are you 12?

>>9232054
Tradition I guess

I never really cared for it. Way too greasy. I always got queasy from it.

>>9232754
>I never really cared for it. Way too greasy. I always got queasy from it.

did you eat a lot of bacon by itself? I love bacon with something like buttered toast or cheese toast. The bacon has to be fried crispy; if it's chewy then you either bought the wrong kind or you cooked it wrong. To be more specific, the fat part should be crispy while the lean part is a bit chewy.

>>9232764
I've eaten bacon in many different forms. I just don't really care for it. After going vegan I don't really understand the "but bacon tho" argument since I never understood the appeal of bacon myself

>>9232225
Meh. Bernays might have gotten bacons foot in the door, but it stuck because it's good like.

>>9232737
>cured and rolled in cornmeal

Nope. Canadian Bacon traditionally made in Canada was a cured loin and rolled in peameal, not cornmeal. Americanized Canadian Bacon traditionally was a cured and smoked loin like my pic, more like British back bacon w/o the side piece.

I don't give a shit what the butcher you mopped floors for called a cured loin rolled in cornmeal, but it's neither of those.

/www.foodnetwork.ca/shows/great-canadian-cookbook/blog/the-history-of-canadian-peameal-bacon/

an excerpt you fucking raging faygo
Canadians know peameal bacon as an iconic national breakfast food, but the back bacon’s backstory is even richer than its flavour. In fact, the story of peameal bacon is tied to several important themes of the last two centuries: the rise and fall of the British Empire, emigration and immigration, and the development of modern agriculture. But more than anything, the history of peameal is a salty tale of how Hogtown got its name, not to mention its most iconic sandwich.

For those who don’t know (and for Americans who claim it’s something else altogether), peameal bacon is wet-cured pork loin from the back of the hog that has been trimmed of fat and rolled in cornmeal, creating a yellow crust. Originally, it was rolled in crushed yellow peas, hence the name peameal. It is much leaner than the pork belly strips that the British call “streaky,” and Canadians and Americans simply call “bacon.”

European "bacon" is an ENTIRELY different cut of meat.

Yours is ham, with a TINY bit of fat on it.

American bacon is smoked and cured pork belly.
I doubt you've ever had American bacon.

>>9233791
https://www.finefoodspecialist.co.uk/smoked-pork-belly-bacon/

Europe is totally backwards and uses ham shanks for bacon instead of smoked pork belly.

Ask the butcher (do these even exist in england?) for a smoked pork belly.

>>9232054

Anyone Eurofags in this thread that are actually dissing real bacon have probably never had real crispy American bacon in their lives. It's kind of sad, really. If you had the real shit and not your "thinly sliced pancetta and fatty ham slices" then you would understand.

I can count on one hand the people I've met in my entire life that actually didn't like bacon. So if you shit on it, you're either mistaken, a troll or that 1/10,000 person who actually doesn't like it.

Or you're a shitskin muslim.
