"The one thing we can be fairly sure of is that no one in our period was

earlier, I wouldn't discount some decadent Roman who could have cared less  how
many times his slaves got kicked or bitten by an irate sow. "

PROBABLY they weren't milking pigs, or we'd have heard of it, but I
think it is necessary to point out that milk cows don't automatically
give up milk, they're trained to do so, and similarly a milk pig would
have to be trained as well.

I'm not pointing this out just to be annoying, but rather because I
feel it's important that city people not make assumptions based on
ignorance, as non-cooks have done with situations such as over-spicing
meats to disguise rottenness.
