Welcome to the Crasstalk Question of the Day. We’re going to do a daily post where we ask you a different question each day and you the Crass Nation provide an answer. Particularly good answers may even be featured in future QOTDs.
So it’s Monday Morning and you’re probably sitting in your cubicle dreaming of a hot plate teeming with scrum-diddly-umcious breakfast foods like bacon and Canadian bacon and sausage (and Canadian sausage?).
What’s your favorite pork product?
There are so many great ones to choose from, because even though pigs are widely considered among the most intelligent of domesticated animals, they are not smart enough to not make themselves so delicious. For this one I want to immediately go with bacon. Everyone loves wrapping things/themselves in bacon and going to town on the wonderful strips of salty pig-grease. Another wonderful choice is Chinese-style pork buns (pictured at top from Momofuku).
But personally after about three strips of bacon I can take no more. That’s where my choice, prosciutto, comes in.
First of all, I can probably eat a full three pounds of prosciutto in one sitting. It’s so THIN. Plus when you eat prosciutto, you can practically envision a mustache-and-overalls-wearing Italian named Luigi cutting the pig up and serving it. It’s PURE PORKTASTIC DELICIOUSNESS, people.
