Similar to Nona's recipe (in her head or memory, not from a book or website) except she used "pancetta" finely diced up.....my Italian dad used both, depending on which was handy....the bacon or the pancetta.
It's actually used very sparingly, in the larger scheme of things.......just for flavor.

For those of you who remember your grandma (nona) making spaghetti carbonara,
please keep scrolling all the way to the very bottom, past all the photos, for the recipe.
For those who are avid vegans, vegetarians or lactose intolerant, do not even peek.
