"Bacon" in the U.S. also means a particular kind of thin cut of pork belly, salted and cured in a particular kind of way.

It generally looks like this. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/31/Made20ba...

It's different than the kinds of bacon you'll find in parts of the U.K., Ireland or Canada which usually serve a more hearty cut of meat that's processed differently and can include back bacon, or middle cuts from the pig.

For example, an American might not recognize the bacon in this picture https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Englishb... as "bacon" and would probably just call it "ham".
