Thin is In!

Today's pigs are bred and fed to be leaner than the pigs of yesteryear. Compared with pigs from the 1950s, today's slimmer model has 75 percent less fat, thanks to superior genetics and new technologies in hog production. Why? Livestock growers know it's what health-conscious Americans want and will buy. Pleasing the customers keeps their business growing.
