    Cut from the fatty pork belly, Australian middle bacon cuts also include a piece of the leaner loin of the pig. The bacon has what looks like a tail and is typically longer than US cuts of bacon.

    • @r3sianon975
      @r3sianon975 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Most likely because most of us assume that producers of turkey bacon try very hard to imitate pork bacon. And he saw how much effort went into (A) that producer's imitation . However, he didn't have knowledge of what distinguishes quality turkey bacon and bad quality. Ergo, it was an incorrect assumption.
