In Germany they sell tubs of what can only be described as bacon fat with onion bits. It's called Schmaltz. They spread it on bread for breakfast.

Schmaltz or schmalz is renderedpig, chicken, or goosefat used for frying or as a spread on bread in German cuisine. The brown fatty residue left in the pan after frying bacon is schmalz (although the melted fat that is usually referred to as schmalz has a whitish color).
