Unlike sausage, it’s OK to know how bacon is made.

That is some seductive pork.
I know how sausage is made. I’m not scared of offal. The best street food, around the world, is made by people who can’t afford expensive cuts of meat. And that street food finds its way into gourmet menus for those who are too faint of heart to know where their food comes from.
Bentons is AMAZING bacon. $7.50 a pound, too (though shipping just 4 lbs is silly). HOWEVER… it’s fairly salty. The smoke is weird – it’s at once intense enough to smell through the packaging but subtle when cooked.
Their hams are awesome too.
Love videos like this. Wish I knew where to buy in NYC.
