[Regia-NA] Bacon Sandwiches

[J K Siddorn]

Yerst. We were on the West Coast for three weeks over Christmas last year
and I was surprised to find that "bacon" is restricted to what we call
"streaky" over here. I did look pretty extensively in supermarkets from Las
Vegas to Vancouver .........

Bacon in the UK is quite different and you can buy it smoked or unsmoked,
dry or wet cured, with rind or without and in a wide range of types such as
streaky, long back, best back, high back, collar, medium and gammon.

When I was in Denmark some years ago, I was similarly surprised to find they
only have chunks of streaky bacon for home slicing.

Regards,

Kim Siddorn

Bacon is a friend
in the salad bowl of life
