IT’S the world’s best bacon sandwich – and it’s made in Scotland.

The “Behemoth”, served up at the famous Horn cafe beside the A90 in Perthshire, has beaten 25 rivals from all over the globe in an online poll.

And it’s not surprising, since the £3.60 snack boasts 15 rashers of finest local streaky bacon, crammed into a soft roll.

Proud Horn owner Kenny Farquharson said: “It feels great to win, especially when it’s worldwide.

“We’re known for our bacon rolls. We probably put more bacon in than anyone else going.”

More than 3500 votes were cast in the poll on technology website The Register, with The Horn more than 200 votes ahead of its nearest rival.

Lester Haines of the site said: “When it comes to bacon, the principle is clearly ‘more is more’.”
