::nitpick::  
Technically, this is the Green Ham and Eggs scandal.  
Unconfirmed reports have **Sam I Am** quoted as saying  
“ **I Do Like Green Ham and Eggs** ”  
Developing…

The reporter’s name is Chris Hogg.  
But even if it wasn’t, my BS meter is glowing much the same colour as those pigs.

This is a cospiracy of the restaurant industry. Now the uppity waitron can just look down his nose at you and say “That pork is _supposed_ to be green. It’s a delicacy”. They can unload their old pork AND command inflated prices for it! Genius, you say? Wait until you hear about the next phase of the program - green pork that already tastes like it’s spoiled. Never happen? The public won’t buy it? Two words, people: pet rocks.

You have been warned.

Yep, that’s Some Pig. Radiant, in fact. 🙂

Genetically-engineered, glowing pork: Reason #1148 Why Fundie Muslims Hate Us.

This could be really popular in those gimmicky restaurants where people eat in total darkness.
