    As a young lad I spend many a summer in the great white north!
    Going to the local butcher shop in Ont. My dad asked about Canadian bacon.
    We were told that there's no such thing . ...as it's either male or female bacon.
    Having been in the food business for 50 + years now....Meats are much better in the great white north.
    In fact the company I currently work for imports all our pork from Canada .
    Reason ? FYI....
    Because there are no drugs used, no hormones , the animals are fed a vegetarian grain diet.
    So that said if you should give Steve a pee test and he fails....... He can't blame it on the bacon! Oink oink...
