Pork is general word. There are atleast three types of pork. First is
Goo-Dukor, which was consumed by Christians in Goa. Then there is Raan-Dukor
relished by Goan Hindus and Christians. Finally, the Farmed-Dukor in US, Europe
etc and 5stars. There could be more?
Also need to separate Relishing from mass-consuming. Relishing is preferring
pork even if lobster, fish, mutton, chicken or mushrooms are served.
Consumption by many can be cost determined. Now, Raan-Dukor is illegal
and Cumaos are replaced by septic tank toilets and Goo-Dukor may not be eating
Goo. Yet 99 percent Hindus do not eat Goo-Dukor as a substitute. May be less
to do with hygiene and more with psychology.
RajendraFerdinando dos Reis Falcão: Because we all Goans relish Pork meat &
pork sausages. Marshall Mendonsa: Pork and pork products are very popular in
the North-east as well as inNepal. In fact, I was surprised to find the Hindus
in Khatmandu, Nepalrelishing pork while I, a goan, was avoiding it for health
reasons. Pork is also popular in south asian countries like Malaysia,
Philippines, Thailand,Singapore, Vietnam etc. Almost all the 5 star hotels that
I have stayed in, in all the five continents, invariably serve pork products
for breakfast
