SC - rasher of bacon??

[Balldrich BallBarian BoulderBain]

	Greetings all!
	In my case, I do not serve bacon by the "rasher" but by the amount they
(the starving children and visitors) will eat.  Most US folks seem to think
three or four slices are enough. . . barbarians. . . I know that my
prefered bacon is back bacon and should be served in sets of four to six
slices.  Tough to get in this wonderful desert land of Atenveldt.  Often I
have to buy and special order the cuts the size and type I like from a
packing house.  I also get to pay higher prices for it but it is worth it
when I can feed folks food closer to what it should look and taste like
rather than the modern neatly packaged processed tasteless poorly salted .
. .
