If Pigs Could Fly
A pig farmer in Iowa recently crossed some Chinese origin pigs with a Russian wild boar producing meat sweet and dark receiving rave notices from culinary circles in San Francisco. The pigs produced from this imaginative mating bear the following characteristics: 'They are floppy-eared with black fur, broad jowls, a thick rump, creased foreheads and long bodies and snouts." Sounds like someone I used to know. The only downside seems to be the meat is too fatty for the prosciutto market. Pork marketers always praised as the "alternative white meat" - they now have to make room for this new hybrid.
