Bacon
Bacon is a popular food made from the cured belly or back of a pig. It is typically salt-cured and can be smoked or unsmoked, giving it a distinctive, savory flavor. Bacon is commonly cooked until crispy and is enjoyed as a breakfast item, added to sandwiches, salads, or as a flavor enhancer in various dishes. Its high fat content contributes to its rich taste, making it a favorite for many, despite health guidelines recommending moderation in consumption due to its sodium and saturated fat levels. Bacon's versatility has made it a cultural staple in many cuisines.
