Middle White Pigs

To some they are ugly, to others they are beautiful.  One thing everyone agrees on is that they look like they have run too fast into a solid wall!  With their cute little snubbed noses, pricked ears and gentle natures, frankly what is there not to love.

The Middle White is a specialist pork pig. It is early-maturing and quick growing, and produces succulent, sweet-tasting pork. This has been recognised especially in Japan where the Emperor is said to eat no other type of pork and where a shrine has been dedicated in honour of the breed.

So impressed was he that TV chef Anthony Worral-Thompson now breeds these fabulous little pigs and uses their meat in his restaurants.
