    Numerous videos like:

    Have been posted around the net. They're going viral!


    I eat tons of meat especially pork! So I had to try this myself. So I went ahead and put the pork in a dish and pored some soda on it.

    Nothing happened... But I couldn't let the pork goto waste so I cooked and it tasted great!

    here's the actual truth on the matter:

    Besides in all the video you can clearly tell it's rice. Who would put rice on pork anyways?

    I dont know about the coke thing, but it is possible to have those worms in it (not the gummy worms). Yeah gross, but I am about to have a pork chop right now. I was a vegitarian for years until I started weight lifting on a regular basis, then I began to crave meat. I started off eating lots of eggs, and then just gave in to the craving. What turned me off of meat was "diet for new america" - I was disgusted when I read that book, but now nothing is going to stop me for enjoying meat.

    P.S. - cook the heck out of it!

    Actually, there are many facts that eating pork is harmful. As we know, the pig is a scavenger. It is an omnivorous animal. It eats everything. There are many diseases carried from swine to man, particularly parasite infestations. Lately extensive research has been focused on senility-old age is characterized by hardening of inner lining of the blood vessels of the heart, brain etc. a process called atherosclerosis. When a clot forms, it results in coronary thrombosis or a heart attack, cerebral thrombosis or stroke.

    According to medical research, the fat content in pork is more than any other meat (beef, mutton etc.) and it takes longer to digest. Dr. M Jaffer in an article in the Islamic Review (London) of January 1997 issue has listed 16 kinds of harmful germs, which have been discovered in pork in modern researches and the diseases, which could be caused by them. The number of patients suffering from tapeworm disease is the highest in the world among pork eating nations. Other diseases attributed to pigs are caused by tri-chinelia spirates and intestinal worms occupy first place among such nations too.

    Dr. Glen Shepherd wrote the following on the dangers of eating pork in Washington Post.

    "One in six people in USA and Canada have germs in their muscles - trichinosis 8 from eating pork infected with trichina worms. Many people who are infected shows no symptoms. Most of those, who do have, recover slowly. Some die; some are reduced to permanent invalids. All were careless pork caters".

    He continued "No one is immune from the disease and there is no cure. Neither antibiotics nor drugs or vaccines affect these tiny deadly worms. Preventing infection is the real answer."

    After reading the statement of Dr. Shepherd, one can realize that there is no real guarantee of safety when eating pork that one would not be affected by trichina worm. That is why modern doctors advise three prohibitions during illness: no liquor, no pork and no smoking.

    I have never ate pork for many year s now. And that's the reason behind. Eating pork is not healthy. I just hope all are aware of it.
