Pork Meat Mar 05, 2009
I just saw a report at TV why Mosems dont eat pork meat:

Its a old tradition based from the Jews, they wanted to be different from the other tribes even in their food....is this true?

They don't eat it because it is considered unclean - the meat contains worms and harmful bacteria I believe.

That's why Jews don't eat it too.

And, unless you think this is a Jewish/Muslim edict, it is clearly written in the Bible that we should not eat the flesh of the swine.

Kill joy but true,

Deuteronomy 14:8

And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.

Leviticus 11:7

And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.

Taken from the King James version.

It tastes like shit. I ate it once by mistake in America, and I knew I was eating shit when I put it in my mouth. So I spit it out and later found out what it was. Normally I cannot tell the difference between red meats.

Hi. Pork is a 'white meat' like chicken. I think the biblical and other religious edicts about swine really came from the fact that if not cooked properly these meats can make you very ill, unlike 'red meats' like lamb or beef (prior to CJD!), therefore it was best to tell people that 'God' did not want you to eat it. Long ago people received their general life instructions mostly from their religious leaders (still true in some parts of the world of course).

I think its probably the same BS like catholic dont eat meat on friday, instead they are told to eat fish....is a fish not made of "meat" or isnt it an animal?

I eat pork even on friday and enjoy it!!!!!!!!!!

Hi. Pork is a 'white meat' like chicken.


Heck, what do I know. I just assumed it's red because salami slices looked red compared to turkey slices at the college cafeteria in Atlanta.

chk this out...

"In gastronomy, pork is traditionally considered a white meat, but in nutritional studies, it is usually grouped with beef as red meat, and public perceptions have been changing[citation needed]. Its myoglobin content is lower than beef, but much higher than chicken white meat. The USDA treats pork as a red meat. Pork is very high in thiamin.

In 1987 the U.S. National Pork Board, began an advertising campaign to position pork as "the other white meat" due to a public perception of chicken and turkey (white meat) as more healthy than red meat. The campaign was highly successful and resulted in 87% of consumers identifying pork with the slogan. As of 2005, the slogan is still used in marketing pork, with some variations" (source:Wikipedia)
