Why Choose Organic Pork?
Intensive pig farming is especially cruel in
my view as the pig is an intelligent animal and suffers terribly
in intensive farming methods. Organic Regulations require
that pigs are fed no routine drugs, that almost all their
feed is grown organically, and that their rearing conditions
are of the highest standards of animal welfare. In my view
that is all just common sense and the fact we are fed growth
hormones and a cocktail of other chemicals via meat products
from pigs is and always has been criminal. Unfortunately it
is profit that fuels intensive farming methods, whilst the
only important criteria when raising any kind of livestock
should be the animals and our health. Remember! The health
of the animals we eat directly affects our own health.
Organically fed, free-range pigs are heathly,
happy pigs. Surely it is common sense that a healthy pig is
better for us to eat? If we are what we eat, then so is the
pig.
