In US what we call bacon is called "streaky bacon" in Ireland and is cheaper than Irish bacon.

Zigackly. And Ferpick!

Not just streaky, but crispy too. Crispy bacon is the way we would describe US bacon (pork scratchings was an exaggeration).


Best bacon description I've ever read - James Herriott (I misremember the book) speaking of sharing a pan that was virtually all blubber, with a farmer, after a difficult night for the vet.
