Bacon is a type of salt-cured pork[1] made from various cuts, typically the belly or less fatty parts of the back. It is eaten as a side dish (particularly in breakfasts), used as a central ingredient (e.g., the BLT sandwich), or as a flavouring or accent. Regular bacon consumption is associated with increased mortality and other health concerns.
Bacon is also used for barding and larding roasts, especially game, including venison and pheasant, and may also be used to insulate or flavour roast joints by being layered onto the meat. The word is derived from the Proto-Germanic *bakkon, meaning "back meat"
Meat from other animals, such as beef, lamb, chicken, goat, or turkey, may also be cut, cured, or otherwise prepared to resemble bacon, and may even be referred to as, for example, "turkey bacon".[4] Such use is common in areas with significant Jewish and Muslim populations as both religions prohibit the consumption of pork.[5] Vegetarian bacons such as "soy bacon" also exist.
Salted pork belly first appeared in China. In Middle English the term bacon or bacoun referred to all pork in general.[33] Before the Industrial Revolution, bacon was generally produced on local farms and in domestic kitchens. The world's first commercial bacon processing plant was opened in Wiltshire in the 1770s by John Harris.
The popularity of bacon in the United States has given rise to a number of commercial products that promise to add bacon flavouring without the labour involved in cooking it.
There is also a wide range of other bacon-flavoured products, including a bacon-flavoured salt (Bacon Salt),[1][70] Baconnaise (a bacon-flavoured mayonnaise),[1][71] Bacon Grill (a tinned meat, similar to Spam) and bacon ice cream.
Pigs, widespread in societies around the world since Neolithic times, have been used for many purposes in art, literature, and other expressions of human culture. In classical times, the Romans considered pork the finest of meats, enjoying sausages, and depicting them in their art.[134] Across Europe, pigs have been celebrated in carnivals since the Middle Ages,[135] becoming specially important in Medieval Germany in cities such as Nuremberg,[136] and in Early Modern Italy in cities such as Bologna.[137][138] Pigs, especially miniature breeds, are occasionally kept as pets.[139][140]
In literature, both for children[141] and adults, pig characters appear in allegories, comic stories, and serious novels.[135][142][143] In art, pigs have been represented in a wide range of media and styles from the earliest times in many cultures.[144] Pig names are used in idioms and animal epithets, often derogatory, since pigs have long been linked with dirtiness and greed,[145][146] while places such as Swindon are named for their association with swine.[147] The eating of pork is forbidden in Islam and Judaism,[148][149] but pigs are sacred in some other religions.
