everyone that has answered this question are a bunch of sillies..........
Pigs are not the most dirtiest animals they are in fact one of the cleanest....
Muslims do not eat pig for a number of reasons, that maybe the old reason not to eat pig (ceanliness they did not know different) but in the modern society pig is not eaten because the meat of a pig is only a small percentage different to humans..... that is why they are used in medical schools. So to muslims it would be like eating human. Also alot of muslims would not really know why they do not eat it because they too have been told different over the years. They keep finding different reasons to not eat it. Because as everyone knows religion contradicts itself all the time so they need to cover their ****. Sorry if i offended anyone....

Muslims just forbidden to eat pork and sell it to others
If they touch for any reasons they just need to wash hands

No. According to halal (kind of like the Islamic equivalent of "kosher" except toned down) pork is not clean and the pig is one of the dirtiest animals on the earth. Like Jews, they do not eat it, touch it, or have it in their homes.

I do believe they follow the OT, but, I do believe some of them do eat pork, but I'm not sure. Maybe a Muslim will answer your question.

Blood can contain many impurities, especially in the haram animals. The Islamic way of slaughtering an animal includes draining the out the blood of the animal cutting half way down the neck. Pigs contain many parasitic diseases in its blood.(I'm not an expert on slaughtering animals)
The way they act if just disgusting. A male pig mates a female and there is another couple male and female pig, they decide to swap partners! eugh. They eat their own faeces.
