“State with the most humanely-sourced pork” seems like an accolade that’s just as fitting. Although I’m a vegetarian from a state that would rather shrink the size of pig cages than expand them, so maybe I’m too detached from the price of pork.

Pork products are used in a lot of other things than meat and hide.

> “State with the most humanely-sourced pork” seems like an accolade that’s just as fitting. Which no one can afford except the ultra rich in turn punishing the middle class who buy pork because its an affordable source of protein, but hey as long as the pigs are getting their additional space!
Why? Because everyone is entitled to cheap pork?

Nobody is entitled to anything other than an equal dispensation of protection, rights, privileges, and advantages.

Protein is prevalent in many forms and to exclude a significant portion due to dietary familiarity is the problem.
