Are pigs the only animals that bacon can be harvested from?

Yes, the beef brisket can be cut, salted and smoked just like bacon.

Love me some lizard bacon :)

There’s buffalo bacon..lol..

I always associated bacon with pork so I don’t know, They can make other meats simular to bacon but it is not true bacon. I ate turkey bacon this morning and I wasn’t too thrilled. I prefer pork bacon.

I love bacon, but can’t stomach breakfast sausage. Turkey bacon just isn’t the same.

Don’t judge till you try man…. you never know.

@xjustxxclaudiax I love bison meat. I’ll give it a try if I come across some :)

I’ve never tried that meat before U_U but I heard its really good…..

This is some of the best rainbow bacon – http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/airheads-xtremes-rainbow-berry-sweetly-sour-belts-candy/ID=prod4199254-product. I’m hooked!

I think they can make anything out of anything nowadays and pss it off as food!

Macon is made from mutton. Buts thats Macon, not Bacon.

Bacon, by definition, is salted and smoked meat from the back, belly, sides or loin of a pig, I believe. With the pig being the operative term there. You can cure other animal flesh in the same way that bacon is prepared and processed but it doesn’t make it bacon. I believe that would just make it “bacon-like.”

@lillycoyote Good answer

@YARNLADY And I was being kind when I used the term “bacon-like.” As an on again off again vegetarian, or non-pork or non-red meat eating not quite a vegetarian but fish or fowl eater I can assure everyone that if it doesn’t come from a pig it’s not bacon; it’s “facon.”
