As in pork belly bacon strips. We tend to use back bacon in England, unless you specifically buy it streaky (i.e. the fat not just outlining the pork but streaking amid it).

Cool! streaky bacon is available at most local grocers.... We are having Mostaccoli pasta tomorrow which is similar to Penne (tubular shape pasta) so, I'll let you know how my family likes the recipe....

Ciao!
