Bacon Rashers

Had to look this up, per Wikipedia. Rashers simply means thin slices. American bacon is actually pork belly slices. In Australia, pork bellies are sold as... pork belly. Pancetta is also pork belly, but smoked and dried. Back bacon is more expensive and meaty - the round part to the left is what's sold as bacon in Canada and Australia. In the States this is called Canadian bacon. In Australia (per Wikipedia) the belly is called American bacon, but frankly, I haven't seen much of it in stores. I have seen large hunks (not sliced) sold as pork belly. I overcooked this to bring out the crispy carcinogens and it tasted like home!
