Oct 9, 2009: Micro Bacon
These Micro Pigs being, oh-so-cute, have been all over the net this week.
Well I'm just incensed, how dare they! This in the Cellar, and all your pigs belong to us.
We have tradition to uphold, territory to defend, precedence up the ying yang.
|
With their wrinkled little snouts, tiny trotters and oversized ears, they are irresistibly cute. But while these micro pigs may be minuscule, their price tag is anything but. In exchange for up to £700, owners take home a pet which weighs just 9oz at birth and is the size of a tea cup. Two years later the pigs are fully grown - but still only weigh up to 65lb and stand at around 14in tall. |
Now having claimed ownership of all things piggy cute, I've made arrangements with the law, to protect our drove of pigs.

That cat is clearly thinking "This comes from your side of the family, George!"

I completely fail to see the idea in breeding pigs that produce only minuscule amounts of bacon

They'll most likely be benched on race day too. I say we go ahead and eat the little bastards while they're exceptionally young and tender.
....starts scrounging for firewood........

They' fit nicely inside a roast duck.

Wouldn't their cooked nostrils go well as a replacement for an olive in a martini?

A haiku in honor of the minipigs:
Herd of mini swine.
Convenient kebab size
In my crisper drawer.

Would that be SPAMINI, SPUMONI or Ragatiny?

Delicious!

Can I have the skin for gloves when y'all are done eatin' em? (Inside out - fur for warmth, leather for ruggedness...)
Warren Peas Friday Oct 9 06:57 PM
The unspoken question. Do you eat them all at once?
monster Friday Oct 9 11:18 PM
They're all spotty. RUN! it's SWINE FLU!

That there's a good start on a portable BLT. What a business opportunity. Puts me in mind of the Apartment Cows we wanted to breed in college. Just big enough for a cheese steak, you see.
A 65 pound, full grown pig is still a full grown pig.
There will be as much regret for purchasing one of these mutants as there was for those cute, little pot-bellied pigs that turned into 200+ pound hogs that menaced their owners and the surrounding community.
They are not all "Some Pig."
