Similar results were found in a published study (Johansson &
Jaegerstad, 1994): The weight loss during the frying of bacon was
very high, being 50.3% and 71.4% for the moderate and well-done
products, respectively. Puangsombat, Gadgil, Houser, Hunt, and
Smith (2012) also reported that the cooking weight loss of fried
bacon in this study was very high with a level of 71.9%, and that
is one reason for the very high HAA levels in pan-fried bacon.
The formation of PhIP also dramatically increased in cooking conditions
that generated high weight loss (Murkovic, 2004
