Called "back bacon" in Canada, this lean smoked meat is a closer kin to ham than it is to regular bacon. It's taken from the lean, tender eye of the loin, which is located in the middle of the back. Canadian bacon comes in cylindrical chunks that can be sliced or cut in any manner desired. It can be fried, baked, barbecued or used cold as it comes from the package in sandwiches and salads. 4, record 1, English, - back%20bacon
