pigs


I used to work at this deli where we put all of the deli scraps into a bucket, and every day this local farmer would come by and pick up the scraps to feed to his pigs. Deli scraps are mostly meat, however, and most of that meat is pig. I think we had thirteen different varieties of ham. So, on the surface, it WOULD seem like a good thing, recycling the food scraps and feeding it to the pigs, but if you think about it- WE MADE THOSE POOR PIGS INTO CANNIBALS!!!!!

  1. Not to mention that feeding cows to cows is what created Mad Cow disease...who knows what feeding pigs to pigs may have created that we don't even know about yet. Scary thought!

  3. That is disgusting.

    When I was a kid, we had some pigs, and we fed them scraps- like the butts of lettuce, ends of loaves of bread, tough outer leaves of cabbage, etc,. etc. We would even sometimes go to the Dolly Madison bakery and buy these giant bins of smashed cupcakes, fruit pies, and such. But we never fed them meat, let alone pork!
