2. The origin of bacon is Jingjiang, Jiangsu, China. Jingjiang is known as the "hometown of bacon". More than 70 years have passed, and the updating of equipment and the continuous progress of technology have made dried pork the most distinctive local product in Jingjiang. According to historical records, bacon originated in Singapore and was introduced to Guangdong in China in 1928, and then to Jingjiang in 1936. At that time, three businessmen from Shantou, Guangdong Province, heard that Jingjiang was rich in pigs, so they took people all the way to Zhejiang and founded the "Sanyou" delicious food factory. At that time, dried pork's sales point was located in Shanghai. Because the factory was founded by three people, overseas Chinese call it "Sanyou" dried pork.
