The Power of Pork
The other white meat. The National Pork Council, or some such organization, promotes eating pork as a healthy alternative to red meats. As the nutrition page on their website points out, lean cuts of pork are analogous to white meat chicken in terms of fat and calories and have even more vitamins. Assuming you’re not vegetarian or have other dietary restrictions, that would seem like a good enough reason to include pork in your diet, right?
Well now the semi-hotforanolderladypolitician President of Argentina, Cristina Kirchner, has taken the power of pork to a whole new level.
Semi-hotforanolderladypolitician President of Argentina, Cristina Kirchner:
It’s better than Viagra! Srsly folks, you heard it here first (well, if you didn’t already read it somewhere else, that is).
“I’ve just been told something I didn’t know; that eating pork improves your sex life ... I’d say it’s a lot nicer to eat a bit of grilled pork than take Viagra,” President Cristina Fernandez said to leaders of the pig farming industry.
She said she recently ate pork and “things went very well that weekend, so it could well be true.”
Whole new motto for the pig farming industry.
Course it probably doesn’t have anything to do with it that the government of Argentina is trying to promote pork production to diversify their heavily beef dependent meats industry. ;-)
