Whats the appeal of bacon?

>Implying I live in Europestan.

idiot

America's obsession with it kind of epitomized its sad food culture: salt, fat, and lacking any sort of nuance whatsoever.

makes your dick more voracious

advertising

If you cook it right it's like eating meat chips

Fuck off

>Danish bacon
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

As the other user 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.

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??!

>canadian bacon is 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.

Well hung

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.

>bacon

You mean rashers .

I boil them in Stew

i wish i could poke my head into the alternate timeline to see what graphics infowars baked up to play on those screens in the background for alex jones to hang himself in front of when trump lost

i like my sausage so fresh you can still see the barcode

they castrate pigs because the presence of testosterone makes their meat taste bad

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.

It's simply EPIC!

>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?

Tradition I guess

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

>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.

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

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

>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.

prosciutto>Turkey Bacon>think pork bacon
>thicc pork bacon>>>>>>>>Canadian "bacon"

It tastes good.

Mudslime repellant

fuck off to /pol/. Veeky Forums is a pro-multicultural board. food and cooking is all about mixing different culture's foods. sorry if you're scared of brown people.

lol fuck off, faggot

le epic reddit meme - that's why.

It is man-child food on the same tier as chicken nuggets with the same sort of revolting fanbase behind it as those who advocate for veganism i.e. lack perspective, immature, and get buttmad over any criticism of their chosen food item/diet choice.

no u.

>brown
>people

>a few people go overboard with their praise for bacon therefore it's a garbage hipster food that is useless and worthless

Idiot. Might as well cut off your nose to teach your face a lesson because it sprouted a pimple.

Oh I mopped floors?

I am sorry you have very little culinary knowledge.

little knowledge is evident you fucking faggot.

prove me wrong.

faggot

It isnt halal.

/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.”

I have no problem with ethnic diversity but Islam is nothing but a blight on humanity

says the faggot who most certainly masturbates to anime?

kill yourself faggot

Haha resorting to just being a retarded spaz so you can feel better about not knowing shit about food. Currently lmaoing @ ur life.

>kill yourself faggot
says the mudslime who most certainly masturbates to videos of terrorists decapitating people with blunt knives? Go eat a JDAM.

Holy shit this projection. You know literally nothing about me except that I post on Veeky Forums just like you.

Ayrshire bacon master race checking in. Pride of Scotland!

>no problem with ethnic diversity
>Islam is a blight
make up your fucking mind you twit. youre the type of motherfucker to say "I'm not racist, I have one black friend and I eat mexican food sometimes."

How dense are you? Islam is a religion, not an ethnicity.

fuck islam and fuck you too for enabling it

Butthurt

is on Veeky Forums and makes fun of people with knowledge about food.

Go on

I did a lel
logical fallacy, what do you know about me?

other than me making a statement about how fucking dumb you are for critiquing others while having no culinary knowledge

it's ok school starts up soon no?

taste, mainly

I care about rape until it stops being a vehicle to make Muslims look shitty
Then I just stop listening :')

Which logical fallacy did I use? Educate me. Was your claim that I masturbate to anime and therefore should be ignored not an example of ad hominem?

I don't know where culinary knowledge even comes into this discussion, but even if it had, you have no grounds on which to assume my level of knowledge.

I don't think I like you very much.

You can get that anywhere that isn't a cornfield in the USA.

cooked in its own fat

Why does your sausage still have plastic wrapped around it?

Is there any place in London I can get real bacon? Every restaurant or supermarket I go to it's just this sliced ham shit.

t. american

>islam allows other cultures
It's going to hurt when you realise.

Not him, but I can tell you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

You should abruptly go off your psych meds and treat yourself to your own violent fantasy.

Just go home please.

that's ham m8

It taste good MOTHER FUCKER!!

t. mudslime

you have to be low enough IQ for it to taste good, I guess.

Corporate propaganda

Redmill burger

I am a leaf and can confirm that you are wrong and an asshole.

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.

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.

High concentration of salt, fat, sugar and smoke in a small, crispy, economical 2-3 serving

It's called streaky bacon and easy to find anywhere, you ignorant amerigut. We're just able to not devour as much lard as possible in every single thing we eat.

Go back to shilling GMOs and hfcs, globalist

It keeps muslims away.
On a side note it tastes delicious.

Bet it's Kurt Eichenwald posting.

It makes me upset how wrong you are.

It's good for hangovers.

Yep even as a vegetarian i have to admit that stuff is awesome.

>halal eaters won't go near it
I can't help but giggle like a schoolgirl when I picture someone seeing the pork and bolting away like it was a snake or something.

Nothing in that post required you to share that you are a vegetarian.

I've never obsessed with bacon as most americans, but recently some muslim dudes moved in to my dorm. Now I always bacon with every single meal in the big common kitchen.

And you still replied. ty

Be careful not to cut yourself on that edge

Desperate

Projecting

>bacon was invented by red indians

Bacon is like the fatty waste of pig.
It's shit. But got hyped up by le clever merchant.
Whiskey is a poor mans schnaps.
