From Bacon Mania to Glow-in-the-Dark Swine

Pigs are one of the most beloved farm animals in existence for a number of reasons. For carnivores, they’re a high-protein, low-waste food that is completely edible from snout to tail once butchered. For scientists, pigs are intelligent creatures that can prove significant in stem cell research. And for everyone else, they’re the sources of bacon, one of the best-beloved ingredients we’ve seen in awhile.

These porky innovations prove that the pig is an immensely important animal, whether it’s used to produce bacon strips for bras or adapted into interior design to inspire creative individuals.

Marissa, you and I seem to have a fondness towards farm animals - cows, sheep, pigs...They are awfully cute aren't they?

Absolutely. What's more, I love how these farm animals are being reappropriated for a metropolitan lifestyle. Does it mean that city kids crave a more rural way of life, or does it mean that they just like pigs and sheep?

This is random, but that's a really good picture of a pig.
