Know your Pork {Making the cut}

Do you know your pork?

It’s something I’ve always said to my family and friends; humans are the most trusting species on the planet. Most people disagree until I break it down. We eat at restaurants, buy cars, use ovens, brush our teeth’s, why? Because we trust that the establishment is clean, we trust the car was built properly, we trust the oven won’t explode and that the toothpaste isn’t poisonous. Likewise, the meat we buy also shows a level of trust to the companies or persons who supply it. In recent times over and over we are seeing where that trust is broken and we find it imperative to dig deeper and really get to know where our food comes from.

And since this month is all about cool refreshing icy cold things for summer I decided to share the wealth.
