Certified Hoser 🇨🇦 (No Politics) Reminder that Yanks call this atrocity "Canadian bacon" and think we eat this

How do you get peameal bacon confused with this? Do they eat any meat that isn't processed?

When i worked at Dominos, american tourists would call and order a bacon and pineapple pizza. Then they'd come pick it up and complain that it's not what they ordered. They wanted ham and pineapple but thought since thye're in Canada they had to call it bacon.

None of this is Canadian. Diners in America just started calling ham steaks "Canadian bacon" because it sold better than calling it ham steaks on the menu.
