Pigs are awesome, and delicious! Clearly better than us.

I hear long pork is delicious too so I'm not sure they win that round (having only eaten the regular pork)

I don't know, I've seen people and they don't look delicious.

wild. hope this one proves more successful in the long term than the previous attempts.

Past attempts were, technically, successful. The problem with the patients was that they were already on the edge of death. A new human kidney might not have saved them either.

Not that these things don’t still need some work, which is why they’re still experimental.
