October is National Pork Month! It's a time to appreciate the delicious and versatile protein that graces our tables.
From decadent to healthy, pork offers a variety of cuts to suit any craving at an affordable price. Whether you're using your air fryer, stovetop, or grill, pork can be easily prepared for both indoor and outdoor dining.
But pork is more than just tasty. As one of the world's most popular meats, it boasts over 110 unique flavor profiles.
It pairs perfectly with traditional and cultural cuisines when combined with heart-healthy whole grains, nutritious vegetables, and flavorful sauces and seasonings.
Plus, lean cuts like pork tenderloin and flavorful pork sirloin roast are recognized by the American Heart Association for being low in fat and sodium.
National Pork Month isn't just about celebrating the food itself, it's about acknowledging the hard work of those who bring it to our plates.
Pork farmers take pride in raising healthy pigs and are committed to sustainable practices. They use innovative technology to ensure food safety and quality while minimizing environmental impact.
For over 30 years, these farmers have been guided by the We Care Ethical Principles, ensuring the well-being of pigs, people, and the planet.
So, this October, savor the flavor of pork and take a moment to appreciate the dedication behind every delicious bite.
