What's your favorite brand of bacon? And your least favorite?
 
A note to my fellow Americans:
Peameal bacon is what we down here call "Canadian bacon."

@gsdx, peameal bacon is delicious, but, since it's pork loin, it's really an entirely different thing from strip bacon, which comes from pork belly (which barely counts as meat).

Oh yeah. At my supermarket they go for $2.99 a pound. But they're always store-wrapped, so I never know what brand they are -- yet I can definitely taste a difference.

A couple years ago I did make a bit of a project of trying different brands. Did the same thing with patty sausage, where there was a very clear winner.

It's back bacon rolled in cornmeal, or what we call 'peameal'.-

When you get it in the States, it's not usually rolled in corn (maize) meal, or the meal is washed off before it gets to the store. But it's cured and (ideally) smoked loin -- much more like ham than like strip bacon/streaky bacon (as y'all call it), which comes from the belly.
 
I buy supermarket brand bacon, dry cured which is a bit more expensive but worth it in my view, and only if the pack clearly states that the contents are British. I don't buy imported meats.
 
I see bacon, I eat it; don't care for the brand.
 
If you roast whole turkeys, wrap the turkey with strips of bacon. The bacon keeps the turkey moist and adds a nice flavour to the turkey skin.

Plenty of recipes available.
 
I don't care what brand as long as it's maple bacon. Also I've been begging a chef friend for days to give me his recipe for bacon jam cuz apparently that's a fucking thing and nobody told me.
 
It helps if you have ^ nice non stick muffin pans like that one.

It's good for venison roast, which needs some sort of fat. I don't eat bacon otherwise, and found a bewildering selection in the store. Being me, I looked at the cheapest one - half of the others! It was random shapes and sizes, not nicely laid out pretty strips for breakfast. Since it was for roasting, appearance didn't matter.
