Huh?  I have no idea what you are talking about.  Is that something on
USAn TV?  If so, it must be something devised to appeal to potential
USAn customers.  If Australian, certainly not something I have ever
seen on the non- and semi-commercial channels which I favour.

My eldest grand-daughter has a charming little gecko tattooed on her
left shoulder.  She first used a transfer imitation tattoo until her
mother had calmed down and got used to the idea, and then replaced it
with the real tattoo.

As far as I know, gammon is a type of ham, rather than bacon.

      Title: GRILLED GAMMON RASHERS
 Categories: Mains, Ham, British, Euro-n
      Yield: 4 Serves
 
      4    Gammon rashers, 1/2" thick
      2 oz Butter; melted
      1 oz Cloves
      8 oz Tomatoes
           Parsley leaves; to garnish
 
  Soak rashers in cold water for 30 minutes; dry them well. Remove
  rinds and brown edges. Make snips with scissors through the fat,
  about 1/2" apart. Brush one side of the rashers with melted butter;
  brush grid in grill pan with butter, then lay on the rashers buttered
  side uppermost and put under redhot grill for 4 minutes. Turn the
  rashers over, brush second side with butter, and push a clove in each
  cut section of fat. Put back under grill for 3-4 minutes; lower heat
  and grill for 3 minutes longer.
  
  Slice tomatoes; spread them with melted butter. Place on the grid when
  turning rashers to second side; they will be done by the time the
  rashers are done.
  
  Arrange rashers on hot dish with tomatoes alongside. Garnish with
  parsley sprigs. New potatoes can be served either on the dish or in
  separate dish; toss them in butter after boiling and sprinkle with
  chopped parsley.
  
  Prep time: 20 minutes, after soaking
  Cooking time: 10-15 minutes

... American tea is every bit as good as British coffee, unfortunately.
