    Not trying to sound anti-Semitic, but if to some humans, eating pork is neither kosher nor halal, how does humans taste to pigs?

    That goes both ways, Porky. I’m a big fan of ham and bacon.

    There was a true story about a sow and her piglets who were punished for eating a human. The sow got a life sentence, or was executed, but the little ones were spared the death penalty because of their age and the example their mama set for them.

    I had an old boss that would not eat anything that came from a pig. He said after being raised on a farm and seeing what pigs eat that he couldn’t stand the thought of eating a pig.

    Too bad, pigs. We know you’re smart and can respond to names etc. But we like bacon.

    Take care and gesundheit.

    Given the chance, ALL meat eating creatures will eat humans…..humans are simply meat.

    Meat-eating creatures won’t think a dead pig is tastier than a dead human. Meat eating creatures don’t discriminate

    on what meat to eat. given the right circumstances, even HUMANS eat humans.

    Just because humans consider themselves exceptional and thinkers and have souls doesn’t make them any less

    palatable to a hungry meat eater

    The TV show “Deadwood” routinely used pigs to get rid of dead bodies. Also, I no longer feel bad about loving bacon.

    I’ve come across two (supposedly) true stories about serial killers who fed their victims to pigs. In one case it was a kind of family business. No, I purposely don’t remember more.

    I remember feeding the pigs and wondering if one was going to take a chunk out of me.

    The one about the pigs I know from personal experience. I grew up on a farm. As a pre-teen, it was my job to “slop” the hogs. One day after doing my job and about to exit over the fence, this huge boar tried to take a bite out of my foot.

    Every criminal-minded person knows that pigs eat humans; I myself have given many girlfriends that experience…

    I’ve heard that those who raise hogs (especially the big ones) learn to never turn their back on them. They can be surprisingly aggressive (and huge) for animals stereotyped as “lazy and gluttonous.”

    Pigs will eat anything. I shot a couple of pigeons once. They fell in the hog lot, and by the time I got there, there was nothing left. Not even a feather. In Iowa, where I grew up, stories were legion of farmers who suffered a heart attack while in a hog lot, and were eaten. Whether in whole, or in part, I cannot say.
