Chicken Tocino[edit]

I'm not sure if chicken is traditionally made into tocino. But it is available at least in the Philippines so even if it's a recent invention, it became popular. So I think a mention of chicken tocino might be in order.

Also, I think a mention that the sugar caramelizes when cooked so it gives the meat a sweet flavor and a dark brown color. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vmaldia (talk • contribs) 04:27, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In Spain tocino is not bacon[edit]

Tocino is not used to mean anything like bacon in Spain. Tocino is the layer of fat under the pig's skin, as the links below show;

I believe tocino is used regionally in different ways and gather from the current article that it has been written by people familiar with a latin american interpretation of the term, which is more akin to bacon.
