Canadian Bacon is a type of back bacon that is made from the lean pork loin. Unlike traditional bacon, which comes from the belly of the pig, Canadian bacon is typically cured and smoked, resulting in a meat that is both flavorful and less fatty. It is often sold in round slices and has a texture similar to ham. This popular breakfast item is commonly served with eggs or on pizza. In Canada, it is known as "back bacon" and is a staple in many dishes. Canadian bacon is enjoyed for its mild taste and versatility in various recipes.
