They don't have Egg McMuffins at McDonald's in Canada?
 
No wrong answer on this one. Canadian bacon goes well in a 4 egg with cheese omelette among other things. Win-win !

often wondered the same.....damn those hosers, Bob ans Doug
 
As for the ''Bacon'' vs ''Canadian Bacon'' thing, they don't call it ''Canadian Bacon'' here.
They call it ''Back Bacon'' and ''Bacon'' is um well, called ''Bacon''.
I prefer ''Bacon'' over ''Back Bacon''
Another difference here is cheese.
Americans call it ''American Cheese'' and we call it ''Cheddar Cheese''.
''Soda'' in United States is ''Pop'' here in Canada, and ''Candy bars'' in U.S. are ''Chocolate bars'' here in Canada.
Now you guys got me hungry!............

I used to spend alot of time in Grand Forks ND, at the hotel every week there were Canadians staying there and I always heard that "eh" alot lol!!! I asked the girls who work the desk and they heard it alot too. I never seen the movie "Canadian Bacon" before but now I want too!!! Just like he movie "Fargo" not all Minnesotans sound like that lol!!!

Sounds like the "Back Bacon on a Bun" I remember going to the C.N.E. (Canadian National Exhibition) when I was a kid & my Dad would always buy those for us.

Looks like pork loin. I can see why you Canadians call it back bacon. It comes from the back of the pig.

I think you're correct. I roast loins in the oven for pulled pork sandwiches. I also roast it with apple sauce and cinnamon. Tasty! Cut it thin and grill it and throw it on a bun like Pettybludart does for a quick and tasty sandwich. Around here they are sliced thin and pounded thinner then breaded and deep fat fried. Throw it on a bun with pickle, onion, ketsup and mustard for a delicious pork tenderloin. "Could I have a side of onion rings with that?"

Peameal Bacon done on the BBQ and served on a Kaizer bun with fried onions and red peppers is the bomb! Try cooking the Peameal as a roast on the rotisary is great too! The original bacon is great as well, but that stuff called "Canadian Bacon / Ham" is not for me. I had never had that before I lived in the states for awhile, you guys are getting false advertising down there.

I think you should add one more voting option for Peameal Bacon.

Try frying or BBQ'n some kabosa (local kind here is Beechroad, made in Hamilton) now thats a treat! Andrew
 
This is like asking me to choose between my children.

I will say this though, turkey bacon is just plain wrong!!!
 
You can cure and smoke pork loin for back bacon and pork shoulder for buckboard bacon at home. I suppose you could do the same thing for regular bacon too.
