Portland, OR -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/19/2017 -- Bacon is made from cuts of meat that are from the side and belly portion of a pigs body. The meat is sold fresh, cured, and sometimes smoked. Bacon is relatively versatile when it comes to cooking. It is used to enhance the flavors of dishes and is wrapped around lean meats to provide moisture while cooking the meat. With an exquisitely savory and salty taste, the bacon grease can be used to fry or cook other dishes. Bacon is often consumed in breakfast and is served with eggs, pancakes, or waffles. Aside from breakfast, bacon is widely used in sandwiches and hamburgers to enhance their flavor. Depending on certain regions, the taste and texture of bacon varies, such as American-style bacon, Canadian bacon, Irish bacon, and many more.
