by Verdzekov Bernard

Pigs have longed existed. We can remember all of this from the time of Jesus Christ. Catholics know best when Jesus Christ removed devils from one person and sent them into so many pigs that ran off a Clift and fell into the ocean. They all drawn and died. Pigs have always been seen as dirty. The dirtiest animal. If you are called a pig, LOL, know you have some dirty characteristic. LOL. But never-the-less, this animal is consumed in many parts of the world. This could be cooked with a meal, and could still be prepared as written below.

In my country, pork business is really good. Pork is the meat of a pig. Have you ever eating pork meat before? You are about to try one after reading this article. Pork could be cooked and eating with unripe plantains as well as it could be boiled and fried. When you come to my country, you see many business posts along the street, people selling pork meat. This has raced a lot of income for most people that have ventured in such business. Some will rare the animals from birth to when they are matured and sell for so much money ranging from one hundred thousand to a million. That is a lot of money for an average Cameroonian.
