Pig Farmers have (luckily) stopped castrating their boars, but this is leading to horrible pork.

For centuries, pig farmers have castrated their male pigs (boars) to get rid of Boar Taint, which is a horrible taste your pork gets when a pig's hormones have been allowed to contaminate it. But unsedated castration is very painful (I think we can all agree on that). Luckily, pig farmers don't have to castrate their boars anymore, but just vaccinate them against Boar Taint. But these farmers aren't vaccinating their boars, which means your pork may begin to taste horrible! If your Bacon tastes like feces, be sure to file a complaint to urge your pig farmers to start vaccinating their pigs! Save the Bacon!
