For me, "bacon" and "crisp" don't belong in the same sentence.
Would you do that to any other meat?
American bacon is what we call streaky bacon. It's that fatty belly
meat.
We civilised types eat back bacon (loin).
And of course, most meat in the USA is burnt (aka flame grilled). This
makes it crispy.
BTW, I know this from experience. I used to travel to the USA quite
often.
it[1] to the point where it is dessicated.
The only time I eat back bacon is when I have something like a bacon
butty in a cafe, they always use back bacon.
[1] I always grill bacon, it removes the excess fat.
The worse "bacon" is what's called "Canadian Bacon" in the USA, it's not bacon but fat-free ham.-a Actual bacon in Canada itself is back bacon and streaky bacon.
Back bacon is not sold in stores here, mail order only.
