Dear belMarduk: I assisted at an autopsy on an American major with a dozen bullet holes in his back. I could tell that the ammo had been American. Sotto voce I asked sgt. who brought body in:"What did he do wrong?" Whispered reply: "He took all the Canadian bacon out of the C Rations for himself."
Canadians may not think so, but those American soldiers thought Canadian bacon was worth killing for.

According to both Dave Rons (of the Canadian Ministry of
Agriculture) & Rene Shoop (Owner of Meridian Meats), the
definition of Canadian Bacon contains 4 words: "Whole
Smoked Pork Loin."
