8 Weird Canadian Foods That Actually Don’t Exist Anywhere Else (5 of 5)

8. Maple Syrup and Canadian Bacon

Can’t have a list of Canadian foods without mentioning the real royalty, Queen Maple Syrup and King Canadian Bacon. Real Canadian maple syrup is miles beyond the American pancake syrup that tastes mostly like sugar and regret. Whether it is golden and delicate or dark and robust, it turns breakfast into a real feast fit for kings. And next to it sits peameal bacon, also known as “Canadian bacon.” The reason why it is so delicious is that it is cured pork loin rolled in cornmeal, cooked until the edges caramelize and get that extra crunch. Seriously, you can’t go wrong with these two foods, even if you mix them together.
