Does "streaky" mean "uncooked"?

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tasted pretty good to me. Nice combination of chew and crunch.

Bro, you need to define the word "crunch" because ... NONE of that looks like it has even the slightest bit of crunch.

[–] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Crunchy rind, chewy meat probably. Op probably enjoys their bacon tasting like meat rather that crunchy fire.

Nah, op likes to gnaw on cold rubber for a full minute before being forced to swallow it whole like a pelican.

It def had a bit of crunch. It was good. Not as crispy as it would be if I had prepared it (I did not cook this).

In other parts of the world, bacon doesn't have to be crunchy at all. But then it is also vastly better there, too.

[–] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

The part of the world this is from has nothing to do with it.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What, does that look uncooked to you? Bizarre

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Some people cook their bacon until it's as rigid and dry as cardboard for some reason.

[–] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

And others of us cook it until it's actually done, there is a middle ground ya know. It can be crispy and chewy without being rubbery, slimy, cold garbage like we see here.

[–] CleoTheWizard@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not positive, but I believe other countries often refer to American style bacon as streaky bacon due to the ratio of fat on the slices.

[–] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, there is also back bacon which i prefer
