I was already going there in my mind thinking of the multitude of sows that farrow in confinement crates when I scrolled down and saw that you'd beat me to it. The comparison is striking! What a lucky pig Mrs. Dalloway is, and I'm sure her offspring will taste much better because of how they are born and live their lives. Not to mention, they'll be PIGS! How fun for a pig to actually get to be a pig--snuggle, root, wallow and all the things pigs love to do.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16390325505351159920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-47379534271357793702013-04-28T06:26:57.440-05:002013-04-28T06:26:57.440-05:00I wish a pic of Mrs. Dalloway & piglets then a...I wish a pic of Mrs. Dalloway & piglets then a pic of the *shudder* other poor pigs/piglets would be posted over every meat counter in America! <br /><br />And, really?

Now the pork from the confinement systems with all the added chemicals is awful. I gag at the smell of it cooking.Susan Kanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834094675218254410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212817062207309616.post-47327474180468068552013-04-27T11:04:44.268-05:002013-04-27T11:04:44.268-05:00So very well said.
