Just as long as the US supplies the pigs, hops, and medicine.

All three of those statements are just plain wrong.

That's subjective. I think bacon tastes worlds (as far as meats are concerned :p) apart from, say, a pork tenderloin.

Primarily due to all of the crap they add to bacon you typically find at the grocery store - maple flavorings, etc.

Fail. Oregon is the microbrew capital of the world. The only place IN THE WORLD better than Oregon for beer is Belgium.

Oh yes, I made something like that once, but I stuffed the meatballs with bocconcini. I think I'll have to make those again very soon.

lol...there's some truth to that. even plain old asparagus tastes good with american bacon. so i'm guessing canadian bacon would benefit from a good roll in the hay with american bacon.

if that experiment goes well, we should drape canada's tank w/our bacon. imagine how much deadlier (and delicious) that puppy would be with a greasy layer of american gold!

Since you Canadian's think you have bacon, do you also think you make BBQ? :evil:

All pork products tend to have a fairly similar taste because they all come from the same animal.
