The wooly pig, which gives some of world’s most juicy and flavorful meat and fat, raised using special Austrian techniques, is one of the latest food trends. It is in fact correctly called the “Magalitsa pig, also known as the ‘curly haired hog,’ and is a breed of pig that originated from Hungary and the Balkans known for its thick wooly coat,” according to Pub Sub.

    I’m very sorry to be out of town, as this is really intriguing! Never heard of them, certainly never eaten the meat. They look like they’ve been crossed with New Zealand sheep.

    I know. I’m not a pork eater, but this does sound tempting. I’m going to try to go tomorrow night.
