Why we should not eat pork.

[GetInTheTruck]

Did it come with a label "Do not eat"? Seems irresponsible to not label it clearly, like humans do with things that arent to be eaten. Is allah not as smart as humans?

Most people, aside from maybe Chinese and Whites naturally stayed away from consuming swine.

The Pig is natures version of the department of sanitation.

Smoked some ribs this weekend. shyt was delicious

There's gonna be a major catastrophe in the future and all we're left with to eat are gonna be pork and ya'll gonna be like, "nah I can't eat it. It said so in a book written in a time when they thought the world was flat"?

Anything can be made to look appetizing. I can post pictures of prepared dog meat, would that make you want to eat it?

and in the situation you described, according to Islam at least, it would actually be a sin NOT to eat pork.

I just don't get why in certain religion, you deprive yourself from eating certain food. Food is fuel for the body. I doubt God really cares about what you eat.

And look at what happened to them.

Pork is disgusting anyhow, always has been.
The only meat I eat is fish and chicken, keeps me skinny.

Again, anything can be fuel for the body. You can eat rats, dogs, cats, vermin, etc. but you don't. Only reason you eat swine is because someone taught you it was ok to do so.

I'm sorry but you can take one look at how a pig lives its natural existence and come to the logical conclusion that it wasn't really meant for human consumption. I mean people are going to do whatever they want in the end but that doesn't change the obvious.

and for people like me who used to eat pork and stopped eating it telling me how "tasty" pork is is a waste of time. Lots of things taste good, it aint that serious. I'm not depriving myself of anything.

It's all conditionning and habits. Some people in certain regions eat cats, dogs, insects on the regular. It ain't nothing really, and to each his own, but some brehs be acting like pork is some kind of poison. Ain't never seen anything bad happen to someone who ate pork lol

Personally I rarely eat red meat (pork/beef) simply because I like poultry/seafood better, but the myth that pork is dangerous to eat (other than than being high in saturated fat) and that pigs are way dirtier than other animals is pretty silly.

If you don't eat pork for irrational religious reasons, that's fine, but don't try to rationalize it with fake science.

Pigs, before they became domesticated like they are now, forage in the wild. There's nothing nasty about that. Animals either hunt or scavenge. You're just thinking they're nasty because of how the meat industry has changed the way we raise and slaughter them. Look into how chickens are raised and slaughtered. It's just as nasty and filthy.

Don't get me wrong, I eat chicken too. And I love seafood. But if you look into the filth we dump into the ocean, you'd probably not want to eat seafood.

I have never found pork to be all that appetizing anyway, I am not missing anything. But keep in mind in those days, pigs were essentially garbage chutes back then so, eating pork, could probably have made you very ill back then. Even today you have to cook pork very well as not to get tapeworms or other parasites.

Couldn't you essentially sat that about any animal humans eat? Chickens and Cows are fed a lot of things that don't even exist in its natural environment and can be harmful to humans. I don't even eat pork but that doesn't seem like a good argument.
