is billy ray valentine onto something?
the swine flu hysteria (yes, hysteria because people are stupid and think every little thing is an epidemic) has caused pork belly prices to spiral downwards in the financial markets. russia and china, big importers of american meat products, have both banned pork imports from the u.s. i am sure the e.u. isn’t far behind since their officials suggested their citizens avoid nonessential trips to the u.s. or mexico.
i don’t dig on swine but i am very concerned: will bacon aficionados stop eating their favorite food? i can see the eye roll and hear the “ridiculous” miles away…
