Au contraire. Ham is taken from the pig's thigh. Wow, I'm shocked, King, because either a) you should really know this, or b) you're trying to cloud people's perceptions of pork products.

What next? Is sirloin brisket?

I see what you mean, though. Back bacon is "hamlike," especially when you compare it to conventional bacon. But it's an odd comparison, because you could also argue that conventional bacon is barely even meat: it's fat, used merely for flavouring dishes. That sort of thing.
