We have a "Rib Eye" steak. Maybe that's what your thinking of.
What do the Canadians do with the "Rasher"? Send it to the U.S.?

What's a bacon rasher, Jenny?
I always thought that our American bacon strip was called a "rasher", you know, like on the menu it would say "three rashers of bacon"?

What do you Aussies call U.S. style bacon?

a heart attack :lol:
Common misconception!
The nitrates, nitrites, over-the-top sodium content, and overcooked animal fats contained in bacon kill you long before the coronary artery disease takes hold.

I spent 50 bucks on my dinner for myself Friday night to celebrate my promotion at work. Just so happened the Cubbies were on too. 20+ for my steak, and well 30 for the Guinnesses, with a few free ones thrown in. Out with the guys I can see the 2:1 drinks to food ratio. First date is a different si...

Our bacon is different - we got the big eye bit on the end - no fat - so I buy just that bit so there is no fat ..... (short cut) Just a light dressing of olive oil in the pan and fry it! so you are saying Australian bacon is really Canadian bacon? :D No -we have our own pigs and I have not seen ba...

Could be an expensive one too. $150 each for tickets - Can't show her your cheap $200 at least for booze at the show, because its not cheap $100+ for dinner after the show Your looking at almost 500 dollars for a first date--which is kinda a lot. If he don't break her in right, he may be heading fo...

The only time we cook bacon is when we're up camping..... then it's outside on a cast iron griddle...........nothing like the smell of ..... breakfast cooking!! Same with us, but lately while camping we've used the griddle plates on the Coleman Road Trip Grill. Never EVER at home! What if our Rabbi...

Hmmmm, don't know how I missed that one. I guess if the radio stations where I grew up didn't play it then it simply did not exist (at least in my little world). Being born, raised, and raising my own family in Motown helps. I don't recall hearing Otis before "Tramp" with Tammy Terell. Ne...

I guess it all depends on your vantage point (or age?). Brown Eyed Girl will always be a Van Morrison song and Southern Cross will always be a Crosby, Stills and Nash song, at least from my vantage point. I hear ya. But, in the same way, R-E-S-P-E-C-T will always be an Aretha tune to me, even thoug...

My grandma had this mink stole thingie that had little feet and glassy looking eyes. She always wore it to church. It creeped me out as a child. :o I remember an old episode of "The Beverly Hillbillies" where a fancy rich lady walked into the Clampett's house wearing one of those things, ...

I too inherited a furl coat and stole. It was probably very chic to wear it 40 years ago. but a 40 year old mink coat just smells WEIRD and it just doesn't look right to me anyway. I tried it on and thought I looked like a 50's advertisement for cigarettes. The one my wife inherited from her aunt w...

When it is -10 here...you can be damn sure I'll wear mine all day long no matter where I am going! You can get a warmer coat with synthetics. If it weighed the same as the fur, a goo...
