    Yes there has been enough loss of Pork as in actual pigs. Dead. China is laid waste. What they did do before that ruin is buy Smithfield foods in the east coast and a few other big pork producers. Now they can ship American Pork and keep their society running. While they exterminate entire farms of pigs.

    Once that jumps to the USA we are going to be hard up to get bacon at 50.00 a packet. Might have to fist fight for it. Thats where we are headed anyway. If you can haul it great there will be money in it due to it's value.

    I actually endured a week of swine flu aka H1n1 with a W267 marker. antifivials at 20 dollars a day from India called Tamiflu broke the fever in three days, I am still infectious and am isolated from everyone until monday. But gained immunity now from that. It was a very vicious virus that attacked my brain for about 30 hours in the worst of it. Exhibited as confusion to the point that you cannot do anything for yourself. A doctor visit took care of that. Because life was in danger from that brain being eaten by the virus.

    HA I laugh at swine flu. But at the same time I don't wish it on anyone. This isnt normal flu.

    CDC reports that 6000000 sick this week, 55000 in hospitals. 3600 dead including 29 children And the season has already exceeded any values recorded since the CDC established weekly outbreak watch monitoring down to every single US county (Google it) weekly. One of those is me from last week. Not very many got it. But I got it. Ugh.

    Anyway I expect the Pork situation to die off literally when it jumps to America eventually. Making it a most precious and valuable resource availible to only a few who has money. The rest of us will dream about bacon, sausages and other things and not have it for a few years until the herds are built back.

    But to anyone able to haul a truckload will make money from this calamity. And hand over fist too.

    There is a half gallon left of that too. Low acid version. It's pretty good. Right now I am a carnivore. Going NUTs on anything beef. Steaks, burgers etc. It happens every time when a fever breaks. Ive got a special western omlette order with bacon and trimmings in a few hours pending and thats to start off the beef mania today.

    If I am not on, that means I am on the floor cursing my overeating of beef. HA. I would die happy.

    Oh one other thing. Everyone is going to plant based beef. (Thats BS) its getting to where they will outlaw beef beef. What am I to do? Shoot myself? HA... Or emigrate somewhere? I don't know. Maybe a bit of the west that hangs on the real beef might do it.
