I recently spent a yeah in New Zealand and while I really like it there, I could never find bacon like at home in the US. Even the streaky bacon wouldn't crisp up like US bacon. I'm not sure what the difference is. Perhaps the NZ streaky bacon isn't cured in the same way? I'd love to know if anyone has the answer.

I think possibly NZ bacon is cured wetter than American bacon?
I guess it's an upbringing thing, but I really dislike crispy bacon, it just seems dry and overcooked to me.
https://australianbakerycafe.com/ is the closest I've found on a trip to Atlanta GA, but I'm still searching for proper Australian style Bacon near where I live.
