Tyra Banks Wrong About Pork Making Vegetables Taste Better
Written by Vegetarian Star on June 23rd, 2009 in Food & Drink, Models, Not So Vegetarian, TV Hosts.
A recent episode of The Tyra Show had guests tasting a berry that supposedly altered your taste buds to make everything taste sweeter.
Maybe they should make a salad dressing out of this berry, because one audience member tasted it and said, “Well, I’m a vegetarian so hopefully this make vegetables taste better.”
Tyra quickly made another suggestion, however.
“Girl, pork will make vegetables taste better.”
Uh, no Tyra girl, you must have tasted a berry that’s affected your thinking.
As Vegdaily put it:
“Because pigs are more likely to carry worms and diseases, and because pig meat is high in cholesterol and saturated fat, pork will add illness and obesity to your vegetables. And I don’t consider either of these to be tasty.”
Besides, when was the last time you heard someone say they had a pork tooth craving? Enough said.

She might be right about pork making veggies taste better, but it certainly doesn’t make them healthier (or healthy at all). And just b/c pork makes something taste better doesn’t mean that it’s the right thing to do. Eating cruelty-free is best!
