Personally I don't think I would buy any pork foods from them but how would I tell which pork items came from this farm? There should be laws that make this sort of farming illegal to use because they have laws about other animals and how they are treated but vary from state to state.

Thats a good slogan:::

Cruelty Tastes Like Bacon.!!!

 

Wow. I never knew about that aspect of it. There has to be some good operations out there. Surely they aren't all that bad.

 

I saw one operation whare the pigs roamed as much as they wanted... had a spring-fed mud-wallow... fed hand shelled corn... an had a barn to come an go to as they pleased.!!!
Slaughter began wit a bullet between the eyes... an they dropped dead.!!!

That was 55 years ago on a small farm an involved 1 pig a year for family use.!!!

 

There are some small farms around here that sell to the local farmers markets, or co-ops. I also know of a couple farms that will raise a pig for you. I went in on one with my parents last year. It takes some planning, but I would do it again. I just need to buy a chest freezer first.

 

The guys I buy a pig from once in a while say their biggest hassle is getting people to pay and take delivery - if you behave reasonably and keep your handshake bargains, it's pretty easy to find somebody with a few pigs penned next to the barn and treated with reasonable humanity who will fill your freezer every fall. Stop in at a local feed mill and ask.

I usually agree to pay at least the wholesale price they would get at the yard, and cover the butcher's bill myself when I pick up - the farmer will transport for you, if you cooperate with his schedule - so I get my high end cuts for cheap and my pork steak, sausage, etc, at supermarket prices or maybe a bit under. Look around, and you can probably find some skilled folks who have a specialty bacon or cured ham option, maybe an Old World gourmet cut too.

 

That sure seems more moral than the "big farm" alternative.!!!

 

What about slugs?

 

O yes... delicious.!!!

Slugs in blankets.
Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside.

Parfait!

 

I once put a finger in my mouth after handling slugs (whammed it with the garden stake hammer), and I won't be eating slugs until that memory is gone.

 

You should always fry them in garlic butter, and wrap them in bacon before eating.

 

"USDA Inspectors Admit To Poop, Hair, Toenails In Factory Pork"

Nuthin emoral about it... an besides... cook the "hairy poop du jour" to a proper temperature an it ant even a health risk.!!!

 

[Ah Oh... damage control]

Its the stuff thats ground up like sausage that coud be loaded wit hair poop an tumors... etc... at worst... bacon is only likely to be a bit sht-stained.!!!

About 40 years ago we bout a "rolled roast" (beef) an it was held together wit 3 strangs... an for some reason i desided to cut the strangs an look inside... whare i found a 2 inch square of hide-hair atached to the meat.!!!

Kinda nasty lookin but i guess it wont hurt ya if ya cook it properly.!!!

 

Ok 1 more shot at it.!!!

When i was about 19 an livin on my own... i woud buy tomato juice by the quart can (cheeper) an punch a couple of holes in the top to drank it from... well one day i got it out of the fridge an took a drank an noticed ther was a seed in it... i chewed on it a bit an then it dawned on me that this tomato juice dont have seeds in it... so i spit it out an it was black... i poked at it wit a fork prong an a fly leg popped up... prolly not all that harmful but a bit nasty lookin... but my desire for tomato juice left me (here comes the damage control)... but about 1 year later i was walkin by a mobile food traler an saw a little can of v-8 juice... i instently thout about the fly i had chewed on but it didnt mater no more... i drank that v-8 juice an never was bothered by that fly agan... so... sooner or later you will likely enjoy baccon just as much as ever even tho you know how nasty it is.!!!
