New Zealand's passion for mouthwatering bacon and ham reached new heights last night at the prestigious 100% Bacon and Ham Awards, held at the Auckland Racing Club.  It was a true celebration of local retailers who produce bacon and ham from homegrown pork. With a remarkable 151 entries from 42 retailers, the competition was fierce as each participant showcased their dedication to the art of curing bacon and ham.
