Ranking of the World's Ten Most Expensive Pigs: China's Jinhua Two-End Black Ranks Ninth

Pigs are a common domestic animal, and pork can be said to be an essential ingredient in daily life. This year pork prices are very high, reaching 30 yuan/jin in many regions, and that is still just ordinary pork; some prized pork is even more expensive. Speaking of expensive pigs, do you know which pigs are the most expensive? Below is a rundown of the world's ten most expensive pigs.

1. Damien Hirst's Pig

Damien Hirst's pig can be said to be the most expensive pig in the world, valued at 65 million yuan, and not only is it expensive, it is not even complete - only half of it. But this expensive pig cannot be eaten; it is an installation work by the British artist Damien Hirst, titled "This Little Piggy Went to Market, This Little Piggy Stayed Home."

2. Filipino Roast Suckling Pig

Filipino roast suckling pig ranks second, just after Damien Hirst's pig. This Filipino roast suckling pig is a Filipino delicacy, made using the finest piglets; the pig is prepared, the skin is cleaned thoroughly, then many seasonings are placed inside the pig's belly, and the surface of the pig is brushed with honey and other seasonings before being roasted over a fire. This pork is relatively fat and succulent, tastes very good, and is also fairly expensive.

3. Hungarian Woolly Pig

The Hungarian Woolly Pig comes from Hungary and has very long hair, just like wool. In the early days it was raised in the wild like cattle and sheep, and only later was it moved indoors, so its body is relatively sturdy and strong, its bone strength is relatively great, its whole body has a great deal of lean meat, the meat is firm, the color is also attractive, and it is easy to digest.

4. Spanish Iberian Black Pig

Spanish Iberian black pigs generally grow up in forests, raised free-range in oak groves. They not only eat carefully formulated green feed, but also eat a large number of acorns, so their meat is even more delicious than ordinary pork, and even carries the flavor of acorns; it is not only tasty but also healthy.

5. Okinawan Black-Haired Pig

Okinawan pork is very famous in Japan, especially a type of black-haired pig, which is even more precious. Black-haired pigs not only take a relatively long time to raise, but also have relatively low yields, and on top of that they are fed purely natural products, so the meat is relatively delicate and delicious, and the price is also relatively expensive, about 700-odd yuan per kilogram.

6. Kagoshima Black Pig

The British Kagoshima black pig is a very famous type of delicious pork. The Kagoshima black pig is a breed created by crossbreeding with the British Berkshire pig. Its fat fibers are relatively fine, it has a good chewy texture, the meat is relatively sweet, and it receives very good reviews.

7. American Extremely Black Pig

This pork has traditional American bloodlines and is a descendant of the Berkshire pig. This black pig has always been raised using natural methods, growing up in nature and fed on various grains including barley, so the meat is relatively sweet, not greasy, with clear marbling, and also very elastic.

8. Italian Large White Pig

This pork is very expensive. This pig is specially used for the famous Parma ham, and its quality is relatively good. These pigs have very good living conditions every day, with dedicated caretakers, and the food they eat is very healthy. The pigs can only eat feed mixed with grains, miscellaneous cereals and leftover whey, and can only grow up in a healthy environment every day, so the meat is relatively tender, fat and succulent, and very rosy, so the price is also relatively high.

9. Jinhua Two-End Black

Jinhua Two-End Black is a native breed of our country, with a very long history in China, and it is very popular among people. Especially after it reaches adulthood, it is used as the raw material for Jinhua ham, and its quality is relatively good. The meat of the Two-End Black is relatively dense, its aroma is also very strong, and its color is beautiful; it is an excellent pig breed, but unfortunately, for various reasons, purebred Two-End Black is now basically rarely seen.

10. French Gascon Black Pig

The Gascon black pig is a very delicious type of pork. During the raising process, this black pig is fed entirely on original ecological feed, and all of it is non-GMO food. The growth process of every pig is recorded, including basic body age, body fat and other conditions, so under people's careful care, the meat of the black pig is also very delicious and relatively healthy.

Of course, the pig ranked first cannot be eaten, while all the others can be eaten. After such a comparison, the editor suddenly feels that the current 30 yuan per jin of pork really counts for nothing, but as for such expensive pork, I can only say I can't afford to eat it!
