Football player diets ROCK!:P

Wooo Hooo that looks tasty. My mom is crazy enough to buy the Prosciutto Di Parma on a pretty regular basis and I'm crazy enough to eat it. If I was rolling in the dough I'd pick up a leg, best ham ever! Maybe I'm bias because my roots are in Spain :)

blargh. i hate ham.

love bacon though. i might pay 160$ for a slab of bacon, depending on the time & place. but like, there'd have to be some kind of free teeshirt that reads "im an idiot" or something..

That's great if you got the money for it more power to them am shure it's wonderfull.It's like kobe beef anything handraised and unique is going to cost you for the time and effort to produce it.As for pork there is nothing wrong with pork these days shoot you can even cook it rare.There is no way pork or any ohter meat is going to produce maggots or any other harmfull bacteria if you store it below 41 degrees. If you don't eat pork for religious reasons fine but there is nothing dangerous about pork these days.

Unless you go to Spain or Europe, you won't be eating it anyway. Just like proscuitto, either de Parma or San Danieli, what is available here isn't the same product. Our government disagrees with the curing process that the Europeans have been using for over 400 years. So you can't get the exact item, only what has gone through a process approved by our Dept. of Agriculture. Stupid if you ask me as most Europeans have a healthier diet than the US.

I wonder if the black and white truffels from Washington and Oregon will be comparable to French or Italian.

My mom always tells me stories about how good the prosciutto my grandpa used to make back in Spain was. I was only fortunate enough to try his homemade wine but I can imagine the difference is astronomical. I bet you its healthier than any fast food place, but thats just me.
