Yup. UK Bacon is much thicker than US bacon, and Canadian bacon isn't what most people would consider bacon at all.
I live in Denmark and what they call Danish Bacon in the UK, you can't buy in Denmark because it's too thick
Interesting! I wonder if it is just a finger pointing name, much like syphilis was The Spanish Disease to many, but The Italian/French Disease to others.
Also Canadian Bacon isnt "All Bacon Bought in Canada" if you go and just buy "Bacon" while in Canada, you get the bacon you're expecting, you only get the 'not bacon' when you buy "Canadian Bacon"
Good to know! I figured Canadian Bacon monicer was an Americanism.
In Canada we call it ham.
