I wasn’t referring to sacrificing animals for the sake of any idols, etc. I am just pointing out that eating pig meat is generally unhealthy because the blood has not been properly ridden of, and basically you eat all the toxins the pig eats.

so whether you want to eat various different type of pork is your choice im just pointing out that it isnt a very healthy choice.

Yes, you’re right! Time for another eye test.

Kierra, I eat quite a bit of pork in various forms – ham, bacon etc, as I can be reasonably certain that it has not been sacrificed to false gods / idols
(i.e. allah). Lamb and chook are suspect, as much as i enjoy a roast lamb.

“And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be cloven footed, yet he cheweth
not the cud; he is unclean to you”.
“Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch,
they are unclean to you.” [Leviticus 11:7-8]

according to Jewish law, Pork is one of the foods that is forbidden.

BUT WHY?
(for some of us that dont care that its banned by religion)

-higher in fat than any other meat. leading to obesity, etc

-pig meat is 30 times more toxic then other meat (beef etc) because pigs dont sweat, therefore the toxins aren’t removed from the body and their fat acts as a sponge and absorbs more toxins.

Swine and pigs have over a dozen parasites within them, such as tapeworms, flukes, worms, and trichinae. There is no safe temperature at which pork can be cooked to ensure that all these parasites, their cysts,and eggs will be killed.

so basically Pigs will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. AND the toxins they eat aren’t removed from the body thus are transferred over to a person who eats the pig meat.

so therefore in a way…

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.
