[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pigs harbor parasites that can harm humans if not cooked through. This is why multiple religions developed prohibitions against pork, as well as other foods that frequently made people sick because of their propensity to be contaminated with toxins, such as seafood. And since religions usually decline to change despite technological and medical progress... that's why the prohibitions are still in place. But then again, Trump is destroying governmental oversight on food safety, so it's maybe time to be a little more aware of what could be in your food. [/quote] This. But also the religions that prohibit pork developed in hot or desert climates (before refrigeration) so Parasites were more common back then. Christianity was heavily influenced by Northern European culture where it is cold for most of the year and pork is a big part of the diet. [/quote]
