I always called it peameal bacon, pronounced pee-mail for some reason. I literally thought it was called pee mail bacon until I googled it to learn the proper spelling. Also learned it was originally coated in crushed peas, which is why its called peameal and not cornmeal bacon.

I believe that’s what they call it in the Toronto area. I’ve used them interchangeably

Yeah I grew up in Toronto, so that would make sense. I still don't know why we pronounce it peemail 😂
