National Pork Board photo
Somehow, an office discussion of bacon led to the discovery of these statistics on national pork consumption. And I'm sorry to report that our nation is tragically deep down the list in eating pig.
We're No. 12, damn it. We're even behind Canada!
An even stranger aspect to this area of intellectual curiosity is the list of other topics of interest to people looking up pork consumption statistics. Take a look:
- Victim of lightning
- Struck by thrown, projected or falling object
- Daily smokers
- Will fight for country
- Very proud of their nationality
- Happiness level > Very happy
- Cannabis use
- Contact with venomous snakes and lizards
- Abortions
- Undesirable neighbours > Homosexuals
Clearly, if you're interested in pork consumption, it makes sense you'd also be curious about "happiness level > very happy."
But "Contact with venomous snakes and lizards" ?????? And I have no comment about the "undesirable neighbors" search.
