Re: I grew up having to eat nasty Brit bacon occasionally...
You sir, have never tried middle, back or streaky. Please define non-nasty bacon.
My bacon mission around the world.
Spain - Streaky with minimal bacon.
Germany - Streaky with minimal bacon and strange blobs of gristle within the bacon.
Turkey - Streaky with minimal bacon and strange blobs of gristle within the bacon.
Philippines - Streaky but made of american hotdog stuff.
Eire - Streaky but quite pleasant.
Turkey bacon (not country related) - Fuck off
I would also like to point out that the tastiest bacon in the world does not contain water, it does not cook and produce white scus, it is a treasure to behold and in this day and age it's getting harder and harder to find a proper butchers as opposed to those that buy a load of tripe.
