Peameal Bacon is made of main muscle boneless pork loins, short cut from the leaner portion to give a more uniform product. External fat is trimmed to within 1/8 inch. It is then sweet pickle cured and rolled in the tradional golden cornmeal coating giving it the Real Canadian Bacon Trademark.

Your can buy in the states apparently.

What is peameal bacon?

<b>Editor's Note</b> Wikipedia says " In the United States, ordinary bacon is made only from the pork belly. Back bacon is called Canadian-style bacon or Canadian bacon, but this term refers usually to the lean ovoid portion. In Canada, it is called peameal bacon, whereas bacon is used generally to refer to strip bacon, which is more common to the Canadian diet."
