I hear pigs are much smarter than people would think from an animal.

I noticed pig meat (pork) is cheaper than fish per weight, and questioned why...

  • is it because they are easier to breed (large ammount of piglets per birth)
  • is the supply and production more stable than fishing?
  • is their feed cheaper? I heard they eat potato mixed with plant oil?

Look up "garbage feeding"

It's horrendous.
