Moonpork is serious shit. It causes black plague, unwanted pregnancies, unconsciousness and death.

Its just an old myth that floats around the internet about pork going off in moonlight. Completely false of course.

Not only pork, my old man wouldn't kill a sheep or hang it in the full moon, ( no killing shed) so out the back under the willows hung in muslin. Reckoned the full moon meat/fat would not set... Bullshit / old wives talle maybe ...not sure myself just the way he did it ...and the way I was brought up to do it.

Any way, bone taint as I call it , is when the meat doesn't get cooled fast enough and rots / goes off! Especially wild pork ..well in my experince dogged pork ..stuck and packed out whole the lion and throat area in summer doesn't get enough time to cool ..chucked on the back of the truck ...drive home in 20 degree heat and the loin will be pink and unpleasant.

My Grandfather would also warn me not to hang pork or mutton in the moonlight.

Unwanted pregnancies? Surely that is the Pork Sword that does that.

I have lost meat hung in bush - but filtered Moon still got it.
Use Ponga frongs cover now if I have to leave overnight.

End of the day the media is now making a big deal its a Wild Boar that may have caused this. It doesnt matter , if its the meat its pork, could have been chicken or fish from the supermarket. If its undercooked you may get sick, or not looked after before eating etc like any meat you going to consume you risk getting food posioning. Already people on the net on the band wagon for banning pighunting as wild pig not safe to eat. Its all Bull shit, its as safe as any other meat as long as you cook it properly etc. So much wild game is consumed in this country its not funny. Some havnt been taken care of before eating as good as it should but more people get food posioning by chicken than what someone has shot in the bush.
Its all about how its prepared and cooked, simple as that
