streaky bacon
Marbled breakfast meat
Streaky bacon is bacon cut from pork belly, characterized by alternating layers of fat and meat that create its distinctive streaked appearance.
This is the standard bacon in American kitchens, as opposed to back bacon, which is leaner and cut from the loin.
I fried up some streaky bacon for breakfast.
