I understand Muslims don't eat pork because they're classed as swine/filthy animals? However if a pet pig is brought up in a clean enviroment (kept in the house, sleeps and eats in clean house) and only eats things like apples, and not other meat/own faeces/rubbish etc - would it be ok to it eat?
As far as i know, the answer would be still no. Theres no way you could raise a pig in a clean environment, if you do then it would be a hell of a job but seriously no i still dont think we could eat it...ill have to check though but highly unlikely.
Only time we are allowed to eat pork/pig is if there is nothing else available ie no cows, no vegs etc etc then we are allowed to eat enough to suppress our appetites.
Tbh i have tried pork, was quite a few yrs ago and was curious as to what the taste was...suffice to say i ended up throwing it up all back out as i couldnt stand the taste of it. Same with the smell of it....it really really annoys me to the extent that ill walk out of a place that has had pork recently made.
and ive been eating steaks since i was a young nipper. British/Scottish beef just doesnt come close to North American beef imho.
If you ever go down there, be sure to find a Meat Co. restaurant!
