History

National Day was founded in 1997. Its purpose is to take a break from the festive season and take a break from the hustle and bustle. And what could be better than crispy golden bacon in your favorite dish? This is a thin layer of meat from a young animal. In countries where pork is prohibited, the term is applicable to beef, lamb. However, only from pork can you get real bacon due to the high content of fat.

The first mentions date back to the 15th century – he was very fond of monks and clergymen. He came to America along with the settlers and began to gain popularity. The Puritans also treated such food with love, which is strange, given their strict laws. In the 20th century, the recipe spread throughout the world.
