I was just reading Succatashs post about chickens eating mice and it jogged my memory to a recurring theme in the TV series "Deadwood". When ever a dead body needs disposing of they throw it in with the pigs. I dont know how historically correct this is but it gives me pause when I sit down for bacon and eggs..

Apparently it's Bricktop's preferred method of disposal. (watch Snatch.)

Yes they can, and apparently I'm thinking we're pretty tasty.
Real life pig-eating-human story follows, spoilered in case you don't have the stomach for it. It's not excessively graphic or anything I just know some people umm don't want to know such things.

Select to view spoiler:


My father is a police officer and he worked a case where they suspected a husband had murdered his wife, but they couldn't turn up a body. Turns out he killed her and then fed her to their pigs. They secured a conviction because they found some sort of DNA remnants in the pigs feces. Lovely eh,

In the immortal words of Bricktop:

You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently, the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together. Then when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because there's no good in leaving it in a deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You gotta starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped up body would look like curry to a pissant. You gotta shave the head of your victim and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggy's digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't wanna go sifting through pig shit now do ya? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to do the job in one sitting so be weary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs two-hundred pounds in about...eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of un-cooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression: "as greedy as a pig."

There's a line from "country" humor
that goes something like, "We ain't
had so much fun since the pigs ate
Cousin Bobby" or insert name and
relationship of your choice.

I'd heard of the spoilered-out item.
Won't ask about it for fear of icking
out some readers.


Also -- trivia: human being as a foodstuff
may be referred to as "long pig." Something
to do with our flavor.

Just a note: I remember reading a book describing an English penal colony on Norfolk Island (The Fatal Shore). Details in a convicts journal described how the settlement was starving and they would eat anything they could lay their hands on.

American whalers would sometimes operate in the area and would disgorge unwanted whale entrails over the side of the ship, those entrails would wash up on shore and the convicts would collect and eat the briney floating globs of offal and if any was left over they would feed it to the pigs they had. The convict noted how the taste of pig flesh would change to a nasty oily whale flavor.

Well, scary though this is (and I don't think I'll be eating rashers ever again) this info could come in handy for a fanfic. I mean, it would be a damn weird fanfic, but it would fit in with the darker side of the 'verse.

There's a line about eating 'long pig' in PoTC II...

And there have been some scary stories out of China about 'wind-dried rabbit', too. They have a lot of unwanted baby girls out there...(Early 70's, a couple were prosecuted for this.)

I've always heard that pig flesh is most similar to human flesh in it's make up and there are places where Forensic Scientists study the decomposition of pigs/corpses as a way of learning about identifying the age of a decomposing corpse... sorry that's pretty grose - but I remember that there is a farm in England somewhere that has pigs burried in blankets, covered by leaf litter, burried at different depths, frozen, placed in vats of acid etc. etc. it provides an invaluable resource when a body is discovered. By comparing the circumstances in which the body was found the forensic team can compare it to information on the 'pig farm' to work out approximate time the corpse has been there etc... Gruesome but fascinating.

Is it just me or does the 'vomit emote' grose you out more than this conversation...???

Edit: coz I just remembered that from time to time people survive in the wild for months and end up having to eat their dead companions who didn't survive whatever led them to be surviving in the wilderness. I have read that human flesh - if cooked - tastes a lot like pork... something to do with the fat content and .... never mind...

Glad you're about - I love being called 'dearling' - and on that shiney note I must say goodnight - It's 12.30am here and I am a working girl!

Good night - I will probably have spooky dreams with pigs attacking me and Captain Mal or Jayne coming to my rescue ... hang on... OK! I'm off to bed right now!!

yes, saw that.... the wild pig (feral hog) population is on the increase in many parts of the southern united states - i know they are a real nuisance in this part of texas - you do not want to get between a sow and her babies - they are quite vicious.

here's something i found about the little porkers...


Dispeller of pig ignorance

Paul Nettleton meets naturalist Lyall Watson, who has penned a new book about his favourite animal

Thursday October 14, 2004
The Guardian

Lyall Watson is in London to talk about pigs. His mission, at his publisher's Dickensian rookery in Hatton Garden, is to persuade scientists that they've been neglecting the other candidate for man's best friend..........

Watson, million-selling author of Supernature, a 70s student essential that tried to explain supernatural phenomena in biological terms,........

Pigs, says Watson, are not what you expect, ever. "If you're looking at a pig, a big pig preferably, at close quarters, what you see is liveliness and intelligence for which you are just not prepared ... There's something behind the eyes of all of them which is much more primate than it is ungulate......

After the insectivores that got under feet of dinosaurs, two basic plans for mammalian living emerged: carnivory and herbivory. But meat-eating foxes, for example, often eat fruit and many animals we thought purely vegetarian, such as gorillas, readily eat meat. But animals that eat anything - bears, badgers, raccoons - found plenty of niches: "Pigs are classics of that kind. They'll eat absolutely anything, even bacon or each other or humans"

I was bitten by a pig once. Almost lost my thumb.
They will eat ANYTHING. The day they learn how to deal with their lack of opposible digits, we humans will be screwed.
And yeah, when I was a kid, an old man up the road fell into his hog-pen. All they found was a few parts.

This explains so much now... remember in the beginning of the Wizzard of Oz, when Dorothy falls in with the pigs? I could never understand why she'd be so terrified. Now I know. And I'm the better for it...No, I think I could have lived a nice happy life not knowing little piggy could have me for dinner.

Mag dearling, dreams of either Mal or Jayne rescuing you can't be all bad.

hmmmmmmm

I'll be in my bunk.

yes pigs eat people, other pigs, just about anything in fact:)

It's really a good disposal method, better than chipper shredder as bits o' people get stuck in it and it's hard to get them all out.

Also med students use pigs because their systems are so similar to people. They've even transplanted pigs organs to people as a temp hold while waiting for a donor organ:)

It's actually easier to run the body through something like a wood chipper to turn it into chum for them.

As the teacher from Fargo pointed out. It's hard to clean the wood chipper. Defeats the point of feeding the body to the pigs. Well, it's true.
