Well, think about it. Pigs will eat anything you give them. Pigs are scavengers and will eat anything, including dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, crap, garbage, and other little pigs.
Sausage contains bits of pig's lungs, so you can influenza from eating sausage. Eating pork can also lead to gallstones and obesity due to the high cholesterol and saturated fat content. Pigs are also the main carrier of tapeworms.
So if a pig has all these things, why eat them? You're just harming your body and running the risk of getting so many diseases.

People say pigs are dirty because they have this image of pigs flopping around in mud. What you may not know is... pigs don't sweat; so in the wild, they will bathe in water or mud to cool off. But, they are not dirty animals.
On the other hand, factory farms have them living in filthy environments; poop and vomit and the corpses of other pigs that suffer from various diseases... they don't have a choice.
Many of the pigs are drugged and 70 percent have pneumonnia by the time they're sent to the sluaghter house, because they're treated like an object in a factory rather than a living animal. Pigs have shown that they are quite intelligent creatures, and have the mental capabilities of a 3-year-old human being! There are tons of reasons not to eat pigs.

Pigs contain a parasite that can kill humans, the disease is called trichinosis. Pork must be cook thoroughly. These parasites are transferred into the bodies of humans and can cause a crippling death.This fact has been known for centuries, we have recently learned about other meats. Pork is the worst. I love it well done anyway

Wosrt thing about Pork is its skin is the closest to human flesh out of all the animal kingdom. Scientist do tests on pigs to see how things will react with human skin. So basically, if you were caught on that mountain plane crash and you had to eat people they would be damn tasty.

Given a choice between a mud puddle and a pond, they will take the pond every time. If they eat their poo, it's because they are in overcrowded conditions. Pigs can carry a parasite (worms) in their muscles called trichanosis, but if you cook the meat well done, you will not get it.

Pigs are actually pretty smart and make good pets, except the part where they like to lay in their own filth and eat their waste. Is that really so bad? I've seen my dog eat cat poop straight from the litter box....saves me from cleaning out.

There are none. Pigs are actually cleaner and more sanitary than cows. Chickens are the worst.
Pigs will crap on the opposite side of the pen,from where they eat.

Pork contains microscopic parasites that tend to gather in your joint tissue and cartilage and eat away at it over time. My mother noticed an immediate difference in the way her knees felt when she stopped eating it.

Didn't you hear the expression don't poop where you eat....... came from the fact that pigs generally poop where they eat.

According to the bible it is unacceptable to consume animals of a cloven hoof.
