Remarks
If you don't have Comté, use Gruyère or another similar cheese instead.

It is not essential to include the bacon fat. This can be left out if you prefer, though the salad will have less flavour.

Don't worry if your bacon is unsmoked, though do try to use it to keep with the "Comtois" spirit.
Keeping: Should be eaten the day it is made.

To make a good fruit salad, there are three important points:
  1. Choose fruits that go well together (avoid putting soft pears with crunchy apples for example).
  2. Remove absolutely all skins and seeds.
  3. Bring it all together with a good home made sugar syrup added to the fruit juices.
Here is a recipe which does all of that.
