Bacon rashers, streaky, raw

Streaky bacon rashers are slices of cured pork belly. The figures here are for raw bacon and include smoked and unsmoked samples. It mainly provides fat and protein. Per 100g, it contains 24g of fat, including 8.2g of saturated fat, and 16g of protein. Its salt content is 3.1g per 100g.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Bacon’s salt and saturated fat content are worth noting for people monitoring these in their diet. The figures describe the bacon before cooking; cooking changes its water and fat content, so values for cooked bacon will differ. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
