Pork just doesn't seem to be what it once was. Sometimes when I cook some pork chops they seem to have an odd background flavor. There seems to be a slight hint of nitrogen/ammonia flavor.
Does a pig ever actually touch the bare earth in it's life cycle anymore? I kind of want to attribute this odd flavor to being in a completely confined environment for it's entire life. Certainly the lack of varity in diet has something to do with this too.
