It started as just a tire store and grew into a large hardware chain. One of the most successful and largest chains in the world actually. We have one near us that put a brand new Lowes store out of business.

Back bacon. Since it comes from the back. We didn't invent it and don't call it Canadian bacon some dumb American came up with that name.

And regular bacon is also a pizza topping.

Does Taco Bell only sell tacos? Pep Boys sell pep? Chapters sell small parts of books? It is just a name not a precise description of their stock.

Back bacon is not sold on pizzas here. Never.

Hey, wait a minute. Shouldn't they call themselves Canadian Tyre?

No. We spell tire as tire.
