Buttie - the Campaign for Real Bacon
After trying to fry bacon and ending up with a watery stew again I have decided to start the Campaign for Real Bacon. We could call it Camrb but that looks a bit silly, so why don't we call it Buttie
I think we can forget the supermarkets in this campaign, they are more than happy charging bacon prices for water - helps keep the record profits rolling in - so it is down to independent shops. If you know of any let us all know and we will build up the definitive bacon directory.
To start you off if anyone is heading off to Cornwall for their holidays or even a weekend away and is passing west through Camelford there is an old fashioned butchers on the left at the bottom of the hill who sells bacon like it used to be before someone discovered how to pack it with water. Well worth stopping off for and the rest of their meat is pretty good as well.

I totally agree with the campaign. the bacon we have these days is rubbish. why do the supermarkets think we like this rubbish. even some butchers buy presliced bacon in plastic. I have given up grilling bacon simply because the spitting and smoke sets off my fire alarm every time and the mess in the grill is terrible. I hope the campaign is successful.
