Venti Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Simon Howie bacon is full of water. Dabbing all the white scummy bits off with a kitchen towel for the most part. Stick with your local butcher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it all costs far too much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind smoked but much prefer unsmoked. Unsure as to the issue here. On 04/05/2020 at 18:21, Billy Jean King said: Doesn't bacon give you cancer ?

What do pets eat? Theres hundreds of millions of animals that are doing the same and kept as non essential pets. Hypocritical maybe? I love pets and animals, just saying. I'm sure pets consume more meat than entire countries put together.

Brown. Had some lovely seeded stuff lately. Forced to get a loaf of Kingsmill White a few days ago, and it’s vile. I’ve spoiled myself. Don’t care about bacon, happy with either. I prefer a bit of sausage in the morning. In bed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 From the Guardian: Quote Traditionally, bacon is made by rubbing cuts of pork loin or belly with a mixture of salt and spices and leaving the meat for a week, before it is washed with warm water, dried and smoked. And you can still buy bacon made that way, if you’re willing to pay for it. But mass-produced bacon is made in a different way – cured by injections of salty water, which can also include chemicals such as potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate and ascorbic acid. “The main reason that’s done is to actually increase the weight, so when you’re buying bacon in the supermarket you’re actually buying expensive water,” says Charlie Pyper, the founder of Cure & Simple, a premium bacon supplier. From Simon Howies website: Quote Our award-winning Smoked Back Bacon is thickly cut, dry cured by hand and contains no added water. It’s matured for seven days minimum and then traditionally smoked over beechwood in our Perthshire smokehouse for a deliciously moreish flavour.
