What is "bacon"?
Bacon is a type of salt-cured pork made from various cuts, typically from the belly or back of the pig. It is known for its rich, savory flavor and crispy texture when cooked. Bacon is often enjoyed as a breakfast food but is also used to add flavor to a wide range of dishes, including sandwiches, salads, soups, and pasta dishes. It can be cooked by frying, baking, grilling, or even microwaving, depending on personal preference and desired crispiness.
