Pork, the Kirchners & more animal farm? Go Christine!

Pork Politics Argentina

It was reported in the British media that Argentine President Cristina Kirchner has recommended pork as an alternative to Viagra to improve ones sex life.

“Pork consumption improves sexual activity,” Mrs Kirchner informed a gathering of business people at a meeting at the presidential palace.

“This is not a small detail,” she said at the gathering to announce a reduction in the price of pork.

“Besides, some nicely grilled pork is much more gratifying than taking Viagra, ” she further said.

She said she and her husband, Nestor Kirchner, the former president, recently ate pork, reports The Telegraph.

“We were in high spirits the whole weekend,” she said.  Ooh! Perish the thought!

“I’m a pork fanatic,” she added, “and I’m not saying this just to impress you, or for self-promotion.”

Juan Uccelli, head of the association of pork producers, backed Mrs Kirchner’s claims.

He claimed that people in Denmark and Japan, where pork consumption is high, “have much more harmonious sexual lives than us Argentines have.”

That got me thinking, so I asked my team how much pork they felt Porteños ate.  Not one of my team had eaten any pork in many months and most, over 50%, did not like or eat pork, moreover, their mothers had told them the ‘horror story’ - pork is a ‘dirty meat’.  After the Kirchner confessions I tend to agree. So, the fact that pork makes one ‘pork’ seems lost on my Porteño crowd at the very least.

mmmm… these Kirchners are wily politicians – are we about to run out of beef in Argentina?  Is the farming crisis going to push beef prices yet again? Has Christina managed to woo the pig farmers and now it’s pay back bacon time? Who knows, but pork steaks all round tonight at home.
