The book "NeanderThin" about paleolithic dieting suggests
soaking a slab of bacon over night to leach out the salt.
Then rinse in the morning and cook.
There's a big flavor different - The salt means to turn up the
volume on the flavor - but I figure I'd get ued to it after a
while.
So rather than trying to find low salt bacon (smoke your own?)
try methods that remove the salt.
