Today’s “would you rather” question: Would you rather completely give up pork or poultry?
At first, I thought that giving up pork was the easy choice, because I eat poultry almost every day. Turkey sandwiches, chicken sandwiches, chicken breast, chicken cutlet, etc. Poultry is great.
The more I think about it, however, I realize that poultry, with few exceptions, produces pedestrian meals. Sure, I’ve had some great turkey sandwiches every now and again, but for the most part they are usually run of the mill. Pork, on the other hand, is transcendant far more often: pulled pork barbeque, for example, can linger for weeks. Italian pulled pork or roast pork, Philly-style, gives the cheesesteak a run for its money every day of the week. And, that’s not even to mention sausage and BACON. As Emeril says, pork fat rules.
Looking at it again, it is a pretty simple choice, actually. Bye Bye Poultry! (I would sure miss Thanksgiving though.)

I don’t like this game.
I would rather give up Turkey. The only Turkey I think I’d miss is good smoked Turkey cold cuts. On the other hand, Pork has such legendary goodies as sausages (an entire world of cuisine in and of itself), bacon, hotdogs (the grody food I hate to love), ham, SCRAPPLE, spam, and on and on…
