Happy National Pig Day
Today, March 1, is National Pig Day! Celebrate this joyous occasion by giving thanks to your favorite pig. Or delicious pig-based product.
Last year, we celebrated National Pig Day with our Pig Heaven Honor Roll, a list of our picks for top pork purveyors, pork dishes, pork-knowledgeable chefs, and pork-related media in the country. We also made it a point to saturate the week of last year's National Pig Day with more pig-related posts than usual.
After the jump are ten of our favorite bacon and pork-filled posts from the last year.
- For an Edible Container, Try Bacon Bowls
- Behold the Bacon Pig
- In Videos: Jim Gaffigan on Bacon
- Snapshots from Asia: Bak Kwa, Chinese Pig Candy
- Pork: It's the Meat of Kings
- Bacon-Wrapped Turkey: You Know You Want It

Isn't it enough that we already celebrated ground hog day last month?

*MOAN* I had an orgasm looking at all that bacon-related goodness...
And now I'll have even better excuses for bacon on Sunday mornings.
@joturtle: Aye, ALL HAIL THE PIG!
