On top of bacon being bad for your cholesterol levels, pigs are vulnerable to both avian and human flu viruses effectively becoming a platform/vector from which new mutated viruses from the bird world can get to us.

USDA reports that pork production during September was a record for the month at 2 billion pounds. That’s with a modest decline in hog slaughter being offset by a 2% increase in the average live weight thanks to cooler temperatures and slightly cheaper feed.
Beef production was down 2% from last year at 2.23 billion pounds. September’s slaughter was down 3% from last year but the average live weight was up 1%.
September’s total commercial red meat production came out at 4.26 billion pounds, compared to September 2008’s 4.27 billion. So far this year, total red meat production is down 2% at 36.8 billion pounds.
Start adding up the pollution and cleanup costs of pork related production, cost of vaccines against H1N1, medical costs related to fixing clogged arteries, paying heart surgeons to repair heart attack damage and related expensive long-term medication.
What's the point of health care programs knowing that bacon is way more dangerous than cigarettes
