Canadian Back

Canadian Back Bacon is a Freybe bacon sold in Canadian grocery stores. Eat this lean, mildly sweet bacon and you’re as Canadian as it gets. You might as well be wearing plaid pajamas at the cabin. Layer a slice of baked Canadian Back Bacon on a grated hash brown (instead of the usual English muffin) and top with a poached egg and hollandaise sauce to treat yourself to a light and crispy eggs benny. Discover how just a little bit of flavour can make your next meal a moment to remember. Freybe Est. 1844 The art of good taste © 2024 FREYBE GOURMET FOODS LTD.
