About 99% of bacon sold in the UK will froth in the pan, loaded with injected fluid.
You seem to be confusing supermarket "premium brands" with good quality meat.
I'm addicted to Spam, I love it, I'm having spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, and eggs, without the eggs but with spam.
Generalise much? Given prices probably vary 5X between value and premium brands in the supermarket...
EO mentioned Tesco bacon, since I've tried all of the brands they sell and I've yet to find one (yes even their most expensive packs) that's cut thick enough and doesn't froth water under the grill or in a pan then no I'm not generalising, I'm speaking from my experience.
My local butcher; which is situated across the main road from the large Tesco; has flitches of different bacons that people like, they slice it then and there for you to the requested quantity and thickness and it's only about 10% more expensive. I also buy sausage (they make their own to multiple recipes) and eggs from them (50p/dozen cheaper than Tesco).
I buy the majority of my meat from them as it's good service, the prices fair and they know what they're selling as most of it is grown, slaughtered and cured locally. They're pretty busy too.
Stek if you have spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, and eggs, without the eggs but with spam then it's not spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, and eggs, it's spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, and spam which is a completely different meal!

It's always puzzled me why , when you tell someone that you really like something, they come back and tell you that you dont.
then they give you ten good reasons why you dont
and all ten reasons are something to do with bigging themselves up in some way.

mrs EO had coffee and bacon butts in bed, she enjoyed the ******* bacon
i got a free slice and I was happy all ******* day

Batter is a whole new world, this is what the current Mrs stek had to learn as a foreign student..
Betty Botter bought some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter;
If I put it in my batter,
It will make my batter bitter;
But a bit of better butter,
Better than the bitter butter
Will this better butter make my bitter batter better."
So she bought a bit of better butter,
Better than the bitter butter,
and made her bitter batter better.
