strictly for Spam production, 7 days a week from various surrounding pig farms. This according to the father of the women in charge of it all. He said she has a giant spreadsheet that tracks the fertilization schedules of all the farms to ensure her 16K pigs a day. So the bottom line is, there is a lot of pig sex happening in Minnesota.

cans of spam do you suppose they make a day????????

Anyone know?.......16 thousand pigs is a bunch of product.....

Not only alot of pig sex, but a lot of pig shit. Wonder what they do with that up in Minnesota?

I know there are an unfathomable amount of pig farms in North Carolina and they just collect all the pig waste in large lagoons. Then they just wait for the annual deluge of hurricane rainstorms to flood the lagoons and it just runs everywhere, all over the place.......Then they just dig a new lagoon......

Tells you a whole lot about North Carolina, doesn't it........

A little BBQ rub and a couple of hours of smoke to round out the flavor.
