      Yuck, supermarket bacon is too thin, pumped full of water and isn't worthy of the name bacon.

      I buy bacon at a local butchers, it's dry cured (smoked or unsmoked) locally, sliced to my specifications and only costs about 10% more. That's real bacon

        I went into the city centre for the first time in ages this afternoon, and paid a visit to an excellent pork butcher there. Fine sausages and smoked bacon are now nestling in my fridge, awaiting my attentions on the morrow

          There once was a CUK poster
          who was a scouse boaster.
          He ate 9 rashers of bacon.
          I don't know why.
          Perhaps he'll die?

            If you haven't already, try eating the bacon in the USofA.

            Doesn't matter where you have it, its all complete crud.

              True, the nearest you can get outside of specialist suppliers is usually called Canadian bacon, it's still not good.

                Which isn't surprising once you find out how it's made over there:

                  Pork stinks, totally without flavour and texture and I can see why the Jews and the Muslims do not want to eat it.

                    Generalise much? Given prices probably vary 5X between value and premium brands in the supermarket...
