@ChrisShortyAllen Obviously not by the term "bacon" but pork meat is one of the unclean animals listed not to eat and which Noah took on the Ark only in twos, as the clean animals were boarded in seven pairs or 14's as they were permitted to be eaten so were needed in larger numbers. For his obedience in this matter, the Bible says that Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD, a quality that most Christians would say only pertains to the New Testament.
Noah was not a Jew, but he knew the distinctions between clean and unclean animals before any laws were written down at Mount Sinai as commamdments that were kept by God's people.
I am a Hilton chef and was told in catering college that pork and shellfish are high risk foods. 🦐 🐷
That's why swine's flesh has to be preserved in salt to stop it rotting, unlike other meats, and why shellfish have to be consumed while very fresh or cooked still alive to avoid poisonous enzymes.
The unclean animals are not bad, as God said everything He had created was good, but not all were designed for man to eat, as many were scavengers that had the vital ecological purpose of cleaning the planet of rotting detritus, carcases and even faeces, thus high risk for us to eat.
Pork meat would not need to be "cured" if it were not "sick" already for consumption purposes.
