Ham and bacon both come from pigs so essentially ham and bacon are the same thing.

However the main difference between ham and bacon is where the meat is cut from off the pig.

Ham and bacon are different cuts of meat that come from different parts of the pig.

The ham is usually cut from the hind legs of the pig or from other parts of the carcass.

When it comes to bacon the bacon is usually cut from other parts of the pig such as from the back, loin, collar or the belly.

Bacon has a different taste than ham for some reason as well but both ham and bacon are very delicious and I think ham and bacon are the best meats.

For some reason pig meat is very delicious except the pork portion of the pig.

But bacon and ham are very delicious.
