Not a particularly serious question, but, can someone Stateside tell me what is different about bacon over there?
Here in Britain, bacon is thinly sliced salt pork, fried and traditionally served with fried egg, mushrooms, tomato, beans and fried bread or toast in a 'full English breakfast', or wrapped around other foodstuffs such as roast chicken to enhance the taste.
I may have this wrong, but I get the impression that in the USA bacon is in some way different? And there's something known as 'Canadian Bacon' which may be more like the UK kind?
Can someone put me out of my misery?
