Just thought I’d clear that up.

The term Canadian Bacon or Canadian-style bacon must be made from the pork loin, and means back bacon,[15] but this term refers usually to the lean ovoid portion (m. longissimus, or loineye).[10] It also can be made from the sirloin portion of the loin (gluteal muscles), but must be labeled appropriately. Similar products made from the ham are used as less expensive substitutes. Canadian bacon, meaning back bacon, is not in common parlance amongst Canadians.

Oh well no shit. So what do you fellow North Americans call the stuff?

OT: i had some bacon that had been covering a chicken that was roasted for a couple hours yesterday, and it tasted a bit like chicken. Delicious.

hmmmmmmmm BLT

Stupid Canadian’s and their Fatty McFat food. Do you have any idea how many innocent children you are killing with your fatty breakfast foods?! I’m astonished this hasn’t been outlawed and generally banished for the benefit of society.

On a more serious note, it is wonderful. Stop by the Ontario Deli and get some fresh bread and meat, make samiches and walk along the river.

LOL Canadian bacon is actually way lower in fat than real bacon. French Fries with gravy however, I have no idea how they eat that stuff and still fit into their tuxedos.

Ah well, I’m mostly just being an ass anyway. :tup:

True, It has almost no fat compared to regular bacon.

As for fries, don’t forget we have different food standards, our food can’t be cooked in saturated/trans fat or animals fats such as lard.

Marge: Bart! Sensible bites! All right, Lisa, if you don’t want lamb
chops, there are lots of other things I can make. Chicken
breast. Rump roast. Hot dogs.
– Meat, wonderful meat, “Lisa the Vegetarian”

Each forms an image in Lisa’s mind. The corresponding part falls off
onto a plate.

Lisa: No I can’t! I can’t eat any of them!
Homer: Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute. Lisa honey, are you
saying you’re never going to eat any animal again? What about
bacon?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Ham?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Pork chops?
Lisa: Dad! Those all come from the same animal!
Homer: [Chuckles] Yeah, right Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

I’m pretty sure for every situation in life there is a Simpson’s quote to go with it.
