    Mainly, I don't like feeding anything that has a reputation for carrying trichinosis. When I feed pig organs, I always cook it. Granted, meat in general carries a wide array of parasites (tapeworms and beef, for example), but I've just always been under the notion that pork is not a good food for humans and I sort of transferred that belief onto my dogs. It's extremely high in saturated fat and cholesterol, and I doubt the nutritional benefits are superior to any other less-fatty meat. I just really don't like pork

    Ah, okay. Well, the pig's feet is all we got anyways. The rest of the pork was outrageously expensive. And the chicken quarters we usually get were $9 a bag at the grocery store so we're going to get them elsewhere where they're only $4.90 a bag.
