Unsmoked bacon for me.

The best smoked food to be encountered comes from Arbroath :

The mere sight of that is enough to give me the boak, and as for the smell

That's the great thing about it. You can pick up that smell when you get within 25 miles of Arbroath - really whets the appetite.

Sadly that's Arbroath's one and only endearing feature.

Bunch of us would enter curling competitions around the country from time to time.

This would entail a few days staying in a hotel.

There was always some c*nt, including one of my team who would order this abomination for breakfast !

Beef bacon is common in hotels in the Middle East.  Tastes dreadful.  Sad as most big hotels in Dubai, Qatar, Bahrain etc make the most magnificent breakfasts imaginable...

Don't forget about turkey bacon.  The Jumairah Creekside Hotel has/had a pork station limited to bacon or pork sausages, slightly to the left of the main help yourself area. Guessing a few other Dubai hotels might offer the same.

That's a bit of a bump, Edmund.  I've been to the ME a fair few times and love the food in big hotels.  Never seen the 'secret sausage' stations though.

I'm going to be controversial and say I don't mind either varieties of bacon.

Both are good and one is better than the other?  Smoked back bacon with cauliflower cheese is the food of the gods, though.

He's talking about Arbroath Smokies mate, not kippers which are smoked herring.
