lomo canadiense
Explanation:
Estamos hablando de carnes magras para una dieta. El lomo canadiense es muy magro. No podría ser tocino (tocineta, bacon).

neutral  Lydia De Jorge: canadian bacon and pastrami are two very different things. The article in Wikipedia states that Eggs Benedict can be prepared with canadian bacon OR pastrami. Saludos!

agree  Susana Magnani: efectivamente, en argentina, al menos, se utiliza "lomito canadiense"
5 mins
  -> Gracias, exactamente nosotros usamos también lomo o lomito.
agree  JaneTranslates: As you say, it must be lean meat to fit the context. Pastrami, bacon, tocino, and tocineta do not meet that requirement, in general, and would not send the right message to the reader.

canadian bacon
Tocino magro


Explanation:
El "Canadian Bacon" parece ser un producto muy particular: un corte magro de tocino curado, pero no ahumado. Lee la sección correspondiente en la Wikipedia, al final. Coincide con las fotos del sitio especializado. Creo que si hablamos de dieta, es más seguro ratificar lo de "magro".
