3 bacon

A cut of pork that is salted, then cured. The result, fresh bacon (also known as green bacon), may further be air-dried, boiled or smoked. There are many variations to please the consumer: sliced thick or thin, center-cut, precooked, microwaveable, and made from beef, salmon, turkey and other proteins. It can be further flavored with different wood smokes: applewood and hickory, for example. In the U.S., more than 70% of bacon is consumed at breakfast, although bacon is also very popular on hamburgers and sandwiches. The difference among bacon, ham and salt pork is in the brining. Bacon brines have added curing ingredients, ham brines often include a large amount of sugar. Sodium polyphosphate can be added to bacon to improve sliceability and reduce spattering in the pan.

¿To see, to watch o to look?
Los tres verbos reflejan tres conceptos muy distintos. To see hace referencia a la capacidad visual y no es fruto de una acción deliberada. A menudo se usa con can o could: I can see the mountains from my bedroom. Puedo ver las montañas desde mi dormitorio.
To look at implica una acción deliberada: I saw an old atlas, so I opened it and looked at the maps. Vi un atlas antiguo, así que lo abrí y miré los mapas.
To watch también se refiere a una acción deliberada, a menudo cuando se tiene un interés especial por lo que ocurre: I watched the planes in the sky with great interest. Miraba los aviones en el cielo con gran interés. Igualmente puede indicar el paso del tiempo (we watched the animals playing for half an hour, durante media hora observamos cómo jugaban los animales), movimiento (they stood there watching the cars drive off into the distance, se quedaron allí de pie viendo cómo se marchaban los coches) o vigilancia (the policemen have been watching this house because they thought we were thieves, los policías estaban vigilando la casa porque pensaban que éramos ladrones).
Para hablar de películas u obras de teatro usamos to see: Have you seen Hamlet?, ¿Has visto Hamlet? To watch se refiere a la televisión y los deportes en general: I always watch the television in the evening. Siempre veo la televisión por las noches. I like to watch football. Me gusta ver el fútbol. Al hablar de programas o partidos específicos podemos usar tanto to watch como to see: I like to see/watch the news at 9:00. Me gusta ver las noticias a las 9.00.
