In the interest of providing people with something to click I'm posting a poll concerning pork. Please wait for poll.

Pork is great the fat is so juicy
I absolutly love Crackle Salt me up some Pig Fat now Dammit!

What about good ol' bacon? :p

EDIT: Is there a difference between pork and ham? If so, bacon may be ham and I may be an idiot. ;)

you forgot bacon....

Fatback, sweetbreads and rinds, oh my!

I didn't forget bacon. I left it off on purpose. Same with ham, pork chops, and other common pieces of pig

What about belly pork?

YEAH! PORK! I don't eat it.

YEAH! PORK! I don't eat it.

Curious, why don't you eat it? It's delicious... :)

Oh, ok. No more details needed... :D

Of course, i have to admit that the cute looking innocent pigs (and other animals we use as foodstuff, for that matter) raise that old vegetarianism questions. However, i reckon we are supposedly omnivores, not herbivores... therefor we can consider meat as part of our diet (at least that's my opinion). Of course, the health argument is a good point, too...

OK you missed all the "common" varieties....... what about Spam???

Personally I hate it but I am miffed it got missed off. :sniper:

At least then I could have felt good about NOT voting for it. :headbang:

ps the name is pronounced

in gee bin-ingee toffeeapple.

You missed out the great british delicacy that is the humble pork pie.

The only pig I ever thought was cute was the telus pig (http://mi.aacdn.us/Baby_52/telus-pig.jpg).

I could never join any religion that doesn't allow me to get drunk and eat pork. There's no part of the pig that's not delicious. You can eat everything from the rooter to the tooter.

Telus? That's a Canadian telephone company, right? I assume that is their mascot or something...

I have an extremly funny story about pigs priva... In fact, better not say it.

This thread has moved me so much that I will now share a Haiku I wrote in praise of Pork. I'm sure many others here have similar "Por-Kus". Please share them.




In the pan, sizzling

Uncured Fatback suffusing

My toast preciously.

Yeah, he's not exactly their mascot. Their commercials involve chameleons and pigs - most of the commercials are pretty cute. My favorite is a whole army of chameleons closing in on a cell phone but the pig puts its foot on it (claiming it for himself), pulls it back towards himself, and smirks devilishly. Then it continues to say that 'Everyone wants a Telus phone. Everyone.'.

What will you pay to get rid of him when he weighs 300 pounds and decides to get aggressive?

He'd probably just eat him.

i love ickle animals and i don't care how big they get, i'd see no harm came to him, he'd have a good life, he could live in the fields at the back of my house.

the same thing people do with pit-bulls?

tie them up outside to scare children and neighours

Pigs are not very tasty animals. Unless they're bacon.

[VINCENT]
You want some bacon?

[JULES]
No, man, I don´t eat pork.

[VINCENT]
Are you Jewish ?

[JULES]
No, I ain´t Jewish, i just don´t dig on swine, that´s all.

[VINCENT]
Why not?

[JULES]
Pigs are filthy animals. I don´t eat filthy animals.

[VINCENT]
But bacon tastes good, pork chops taste good...

[JULES]
Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie,
But I´d never know ´cause I wouldn´t eat the filthy motherfuckers.
Pigs sleep and root in shit, that´s a filthy animal.
I don´t eat nothin´ that ain´t got sense enough to disregard its own feces.

[VINCENT]
How about a dog? A dog eats its own feces

[JULES]
I don´t eat dog either

[VINCENT]
Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal?

[JULES]
I wouldn´t go so far as to call a dog filthy, but it´s definately dirty.
But, dogs got personality, personality goes a long way.

[VINCENT]
So by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, he would cease to be a filty animal. Is that true?

[JULES]
We´ have to be talkin´ ´bout one charmin´ motherfuckin´ pig.
I mean he´d have to be ten times more charmin´ than that Arnold on Green Acres, you know what I´m sayin´?

<SNIP CLEVER DIALOGUE>
Hahaha!

The other White Meat! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/harlesburg/MichealMoore.jpg)

Inside round.

Two words.... Pulled pork.

'Nuff said.

If you woulda had sausage, ribs, BBQ, bacon or pork chops on there I might would've had something to vote for.

Not my favorite meat tho. Rarely eat pork :)

[VINCENT]
You want some bacon?

[JULES]
No, man, I don´t eat pork.

[VINCENT]
Are you Jewish ?

No, I ain´t Jewish, i just don´t dig on swine, that´s all.

Wish I had that movie on tape. Since the Jules thread .. I've been wanting to watch it. Well Samuel L thread.. but Jules won.

Mmmm, ham and bacon... *Drools*

Sausages. Totally. otherwise, there's just way too much fat on pork for me. it just puts me off. it's like chicken with skin on.
