Bacon is soooo good.
Bacon it's what's for dinner.
Mmmm........ dead pig flesh........ 
Bacon is good but I once worked on a job roofing a house that was 20 miles away from a hog farm. When the wind blew in the right direction it was horrible, from 20 miles away. I went a few years without eating pork, not because of some humane ideal but the memory of that smell would come creeping out from the back of my mind and it made me sick.
WOW! Good story. Thanks for that link, Stink.
I'll go eat my GimmeLean now, thank you.........
i read that last night in the real rag (didn't see this link before). what a mess. insane.
She looks delicious...That's why everyone should produce their own bacon...
This is Petunia... she lives in my back yard. SS, How'd you like to come over for bacon and eggs? (The people next door have chickens)
I'll eat some of that pig. When are you going to cut her up?That's why everyone should produce their own bacon...

We used to raise pigs on the farm for the bacon. Good stuff that home raised pig.
Had chickens too. Mmmmm.... fresh bacon and eggs.
SS, did you read the article?
...just another reason I'm thankful to be veggie.
I don't remember where I found this article (so forgive me if you've seen it), but:
Kids with higher IQs grow up to be vegetarians.
Not saying I'm smarter than you meat-eaters, the chances are likely!

Can't we use all the pig shat for auto fuel or something like in the movie Roadwarrior. Methane ..

there's a pig farm (at least i think that's what causes that foul stench when the wind is blowing the wrong way) near where i work.
i can't imagine the absolute disgusting mess of an industrial-sized operation like they describe in eastern NC.
people falling into lagoons of pig sh!t and dying. unreal.

People don't like to see the other side of the meat industry. With good reason too... it's pretty freaking nasty. I got a look at a chicken farm once. Put me off of meat for a week.
Supplying meat to millions of hungry people is a tough and ugly job.
And sadly she's not an eating pig, she's a potbelly, and an old one at that. Although if anyone want's to come over and BBQ her up I'm all for it.

Although the environmental damage is a significant concern, it doesn't change the fact that pig meat is tasty. Hate the game, not the playa.
don't get me wrong, i love the swine. but i'd pay a bit more if i knew they'd be putting in some sort of environmental controls on the flow of pig feces...
I didn't read the whole RS article, (it felt like I was being force fed with tofu) so I'm not sure if it mentioned the legislation passed in Sept. 2005 to address this problem which will require all farms to

Find a local pig farmer & buy the whole thing. Go visit the farm. I'm sure it's available in your area somewhere....
What if the local pig farmers are the gigantic commercial outfits? I tell you what... more bacon is what.
when did you turn into N8?
When you started harping on bacon. Its delicious you know?
Farming animals like that is wrong. It's totally possible to have sanitary healthy conditions and provide quality value meat.
I try to ensure I never eat concentration-farmed meat. Is it any wonder people get cancer when we treat our food like that?
Bacon does taste good, and free range bacon tastes way better (in more than one way).
Pig farm from near where I'm from:

Tiny image, only one I can find. Pigs have huge fields to roam 24/7.

Mmmm.
In Ontario animal waste is pumped or "carted" to wastewater treatment centers. Most of the pork here in the northeast comes from Ontario.
