I like bacon but...

[Tsavo]

"Smoked ham" on this side of the pond.

 

[HAL9000]

They do. The Oxford English Dictionary.

Hmm I think it's missing somethings, like gammon being ham in america.

btw... gammon is bacon. it's just a different cut.. but still considered bacon


so your thread is saying "i like bacon.. but i prefer bacon"

Nope, it's saying "I like bacon... but I prefer gammon" in the same way that I might say "I like scrambled eggs, but I prefer fried"

That's a separate affliction you have there.

True.

Well he is part of the "introduce the handicapped to the internet" program..

 

[JulesMaximus]

I agree.

It's ham, for everyone else. I googled it. HAL, have you ever googled something instead of asking in a thread about something you weren't familiar with?

Then he wouldn't have the opportunity to create yet another tag with hal9000 is awesome...

I'm sure it's good, but have you ever seen gammon icing? I think not.

Gammonaise doesn't have an appealing ring

In other news, it took us about a week to get through our leftover Thanksgiving ham.

You know what's scary? If you google "gammonaise" your post comes up as 1 of only 2 matches. They've gotten fast.

Yum, lots of ham sandwiches?

I really, really wish you folks had a different word for bread than we did, just so I could have gone for the irony.

I'll have to settle for this: Gammon sandwiches.

The review was merely two words: Shit sandwich.

 

[sjwaste]

Why can't I exit this thread?

But you should hear the sustain on this thread. You could go out, have a bite, come back, and ahhhhhhhhh

Uncured pork belly > bacon

Uncured pork belly > bacon

Go 50/50 with pork shoulder, cook it slowly, and end up with a shitload of rillettes? Yep, that sounds just fine to me.

 

[schneiderguy]

Gonna have to agree with HAL on this one. Bacon is overrated anyway.

Yes!

[Iron Woode]

if you really want to mess with HAL9000 tell him about Canadian bacon (back bacon and Peameal bacon).
