Pork rules (except for Muslims and Jews).

Love that pork with a goodly portion of fat marbling; so much of it nowdays is bred to be uber-lean, and not very tasty in my books; like turkey breast without basting.

A proper steak is a close second, preferably rib eye, with lots of marbling there too.

Many of my cousins raise hogs and beef, and when the time comes to butcher them out, they agree that the better the marbling, the better the meat.

Hope you had a lovely Christmas and thanks for keeping me in your posts.

Did you catch the 200th birthday special for Joseph Smith? We just caught the rebroadcast. It was marvelous.

My Greatgrand parents had a Hog Farm in up state NY 1880-1962's the family thought nothing of using Lard and Black pepper on nice toasted bread and tea!

BTW many in this family lived into there late 90's

You know I have come to the conclusion that they have adulterated our food so much over the years just to make a buck!

Not all but enough have formed this cabal with with food, medicine causing one to go on low cal, low carb, low fat or whatever to accomdate the alterations!

Until process foods, and using the latest chemical someone discovered and how to get the consumer to use it, so they could profit from their useless artificial or contrived solution which serves no purpose to maintain health, as it does to extend shelf life!

The medical profession takes Natural herbs which they can't patten and make a synthetic which the body can not recognized.

As I watch the infomerical I see a war between Alterative Medicine vs Mother nature!

It really is going to get interesting!

No it is not played this far east, but I did get to hear the Christmas Program on PBS...


American mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade and Europe's pre-eminent baritone Bryn Terfel join the renowned Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square in this concert featuring sacred and secular holiday favorites, as well as seasonal songs from around the world. Musical highlights include "Joy to the World," "Hark the Herald Angels Sing," and other traditional carols. (Closed Captioning) (Stereo)
