Dencandy Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Go-off-quickly-itis. Curing takes care of it; it's also the name given to hardening concrete and rubber, but the taste is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchful Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Whatever the poor porker had, slaughtering and curing etc. certainly put an end to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
