It is called salt pork. It's salt cured pig's fat used for flavor. But it's not smoked, & is much fattier and saltier than bacon. Used by cooks for flavoring in the South and New England in things like Boston Baked Beans.

I never noticed them.
If they are white strips, maybe bacon fat.
All I know is I love Bush's baked beans.

lard strips - really that is why they disappear when you heat it - if you get the vegetarian version there are no strips.

I thought it was the fat from the bacon.
