Fat bacon contains very little meat, often with a thin layer of meat on top. Fatty bacon is almost completely white. It is available fresh and salted. It comes from the pork back. It was often eaten fried in the past. The bacon from the back is hard and is therefore also used for bacon cubes that can be fried. Fatty bacon is also used in the production of meat products (eg cervelaat sausage and black pudding). The soft bacon that comes from the hams is often used for sliceable meats such as pâtés because it is more spreadable. fat bacon per kilo
