I guess that explains why close to 25% of restaurants
featured on Triple
D and similar Food Network shows feature pork belly. I
can't think of any cut of meat that gets as much coverage
as pork belly.

You don't believe in them?  They are real.
Are you just averse to believing in them because they example
of the amount of time they spend dealing with the pork belly
that you said Americans aren't interested in?

Most Americans are interested in bacon - they aren't interested

 Please stop with the misguided posts about "Americans".

 What's the problem? You think I don't qualify as an American? I think
you're the one that's misguided.

 David, you insert all sorts of things that are not true and you know it.

 I call your bluff. Name one.

 "Most Americans are interested in bacon - they aren't interested

 Back that up, David.

I would think that to be self-evident. Most of yoose people aren't
interested in pork belly. When was the last time you cooked up pork
belly? Do you have a favorite family recipe for pork belly? You might
but I doubt it - because most Americans aren't interested in pork belly.
My guess is that yoose guys think it's low class meat.

Just to clarify: the younger generation of Americans are more interested
in pork belly than the boomers ever were. The younger generation of
Americans are doing things with pork belly but they're not making
American bacon. They're making ethnic foods. The Mexicans love pork
belly too. We can't forget about the Mexicans.

This makes sense to me. The younger generation is more well traveled and open to foreign food, and having traveled a lot in south america and asia, they've come to enjoy the belly of the pork.
