Bacon less than 3% fat? I guess that's by weight?
Doesn't sound like the bacon I get. Lots of fat drains out during cooking, I guess you mean after cooking?

Methinks it's the Rice Cakes that are killing her.
I suspect however, your comparison is skewed by equivalecy of portions. Where the bacon may only be 3%, that is 3% per bite with 3.6725 bites per bacon stick.
The rice cakes on the other hand are <5% fat per metric tonne. It's the blood loss from the shragging of her upper palate that killed her.

It's just the opposite here in the States. Quaker Rice Cakes are 0% fat and the average American bacon is 75% fat! I want some of Orfy's bacon.

I think she's using the cakes to sop up the bacon grease.

what kinda of bacon has only 2.3% fat per serving? Also those rice cakes have 2.8% fat per 100 grams and 0.6% saturated fat , how much fat in 100 grams of the bacon?
I just bought some bacon over the weekend Wrights brand natural smoke thick slice bacon ... 7 grams of fat per serving two slices

Friggin' canadians. Them and the amish are plotting against the US. They hate our bacon and our buttons.

Didn't Canadian bacon originate in the UK during the war (II)?... when food shortages required the importation of pork products from Canada and the Brits smoked/cured certain Canadian pork cuts... yadda, yadda, yadda, they called it Canadian bacon?
I guess I could have researched it myself, but I've a miserable cold and I'm too lazy to do it right now.

It's not called Canadian bacon here.
It's bacon medallions and it's a premium product.

That's some excellent marketing strategy that has you calling pork loin premium.

How can you have head retention at all?
You guys are comedy. Percentages are percentages, period, nothing about percent per bite or any crap like that. The 2.3% would be *shock* 2.3% per 100 grams as well.

My wife used to argue 2 pints of beer at 5% was the same has drinking wine at 10%
8 pints of beer made it 40%!!!

pork loin a premium product? canadian bacon is cheaper here than regular bacon.
well actually Orfy and I worded it wrong the rice cakes have 2.8 grams of fat per 100 grams not 2.8%
OP
OP
I've had a beer (well several plus some more)
But isn't 2.8 grams of fat per 100 equal to 2.8% of fat per any size portion?

maybe so, but if you were wearing a blind fold and were fed a chunk of ham and a chunk or canadian bacon, I doubt you' pick the right one very time.

I guess so but your wife isn't eating a whole package at on sitting is she ? One serving (1 slice)has 0.2 grams of fat and most of that is unsaturated I don't think you can say that about the pig meat
Just stumbled across this...which pretty much eclipses anything and everything bacon-related in the last 18,000 years of human existence.
