    Bacon doesn't do much for me.
    That's grounds for banning, isn't it???

    PIG! Talk to most vegetarians, the hardest meat to give up is bacon AND is there no better food when camping? Pigs also find truffles, they get my vote.

    Both. Only because of bacon-wrapped steak.

    I completely forgot about brikset... glad I had cow before because that absolutely pushes it WAY in cow's favor.

    I have to go with Cow. Yes, bacon is great, but there is beef bacon. While not in the pork bacon category it does beat turkey bacon. The pig does have ham steaks, but that is no where near a good beef steak. In the end, the cows milk really just trumps all. This leads to butter and cream which, in turn, leads to numerous desserts. I mean, this eventually can turn into a chocolate versus bacon battle. Bacon, while a strong competitor, just cannot stand up to all of those possibilities.

    I don't know but when I eat like a pig I feel like a cow.


    I always see people posting amusing responses that don't answer the question and thought I'd give it a try. :wink:

    Pig. Wrapped around cow.

    This is the best answer.

    Pig for meat. Cow for dairy and the resulting yumminess. Kill the pig, keep the cow. Problem solved.

    Chicken or fish?

    It's a toss up. I love the Chipotle Pork Burgers I get at the farmer's market, so I can't say I'd miss burgers if I went all pork.

    I'm an ethical carnivore. 35 years of *not* eating factory farmed meat.

    So, pig, cow, either is fine as long as you know your farmer. And I got made fun of for stating this at lunch today but it's true--grass fed beef has HALF the fat of factory farmed.

    I'm only 26, but this haha
    As long as it isn't factory farmed and free range than I'm ok with both

    HOWEVER

    I prefer seafood & venison
    I live in SW michigan....lots of lakes and deer

    Cow....but gosh darnit...bacon is hard to beat!
    Agreed. No question bacon is the #1, but to me the various cuts of steak all neutralize the bacon + pork chop combo. Ham? A great alternative, but just can't beat out ground beef in my opinion (we won't even talk about the nastitness that is ground pork.

    So its cow, by a nose... or a hoof?

    I think veal is a different category.

    Indiana girl here to debate the "nastiness" of ground pork! We have a thing here called "porkburgers" - in fact, there is a town that has a festival devoted to the things. If you are ever here, please try one!

    That said - I simply cannot chose! I must have all the meats :)

    Fair enough - in my experience, they are nasty - but if you Indianans (?) do it right, I'm game.

    BOTH!!! Pig for ribs, bacon, ham, and tenderloin... Cow for steaks... You can eat lean from either.

    Difficult choice, need to combine the 2, front half a pig, back half a cow, it could be called a piow

    Cow for me, but only because I'm not really a pork fan aside from bacon and my grandmother's holiday hams.

    Also, my husband and I have easy access to grass-fed, hormone-free angus as we raise them ourselves! Yum!

    Pig!
    I just love bacon and sausages, and beef and steak is too chewy since I got braces anyway! ;-)

    VENISON wrapped with Bacon is better than cow wrapped in bacon! So I guess Ill have to go with pig!
