Holy Bacon Bits!

A nice little vid about a (mini) piglet farm. Makes these mini-bacon-schnozzles look DOWNRIGHT snugglable!

I can't HELP but make the tiniest of snorting sounds while watching this, Tony E.!

how can something so tiny and cute grow up to be so freakin' big and tasty?: Beth; | Jun 02, 2008 at 07:43 AM

Aww little bitty piggies. Pigs are very clean and smart. And affectionate. one of our neighbors is a pot belly pig rescuer. They prefer a nice swimming pool of clean water to mud. They will pick one spot farthest away from their bed as possible for their toilet and they like to eat fruits and vegies And they can learn lots of tricks..: Annie; | Jun 02, 2008 at 07:49 AM

Only big enough for chippolatas.: hon glad; | Jun 02, 2008 at 07:58 AM

Bing Crosby! (Cute pigs, too.): AuntieMame; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:13 AM

um...squee: blair; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:13 AM

I loved that the reporter so obviously loved doing this job!! Was it just me, or did his accent make him even cuter? (the guy's, I couldn't hear the pig's accent...) Wee wee wee wee, all the way home!: Kris; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:15 AM

I can see that reporters desk already covered in Piggy stuff!!!1 Cute story though.: leah b.; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:27 AM

more 4 is a satellite tv channel that shows very important and hardhitting documentries, about stuff like iraq, child abuse and stumpy mcpigglesons.: Janeyferr; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:37 AM

ah, OK, thanks Janey: Theo; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:41 AM

Awww...love piggies! so cute and fuzzy. I'd have one if I could. oink-oink: Lioness; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:52 AM

OMG, little piggies in a doll stroller?!?: GreedySkunk; | Jun 02, 2008 at 08:58 AM

As a neighbor of one of the most famous "Stroller-Moms From Hell" neighborhoods, I would allow myself to be steamrolled by piggies in a stroller IN A HEARTBEAT.: Theresa; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:13 AM

WANT! WANT! WANT! WANT! WANT! Hey Theresa, you wouldn't be referring to Park Slope, would ya?: Wendy; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:18 AM

I never lived in the Slope itself, but in environs . . . but considering how real estate works around here... If I just stay where I am long enough, I should be living in the Slope any day now. :P: Theresa; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:31 AM

Thanks... lost my ability to speak for 15 minutes. Kept going "waaaa... guuu" and patting at the screen... this had way much more cuteness than my brain could handle. I officially need 124839403883 of those little piglets now.: doomchild; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:40 AM

After having had to run for my life from a hog with fangs, I will never look at a piggy as "cute" again. They're like baby piranhas. But tastier. [Hmm, I've never tasted piranha... funny thought... - Ed.]: bryn; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:45 AM

Tonight I'll be torn between watching Babe (for the umpty-gazillionth time) or A Christmas Story (how do the little piggies eat?). Please, someone help me decide.: debg; | Jun 02, 2008 at 09:59 AM

Reason #1,298 I'm a vegetarian.: semanticantics; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:17 AM

Darn, I can't find the video I'm looking for, but Theo, on the Travel Channel's Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern, he ate piranha on one of his episodes. He said it was very tasty, but he says that about almost everything. :P: brinnann; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:19 AM

Where can I get that set of "This little piggy..." mugs?: edmundh; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:20 AM

debg - Both, you silly peep!: Katrina; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:23 AM

PEEGS! SQUEEEEE!: Laura; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:25 AM

Anybody else think of the first "Charlotte's Web" when they saw the piggies in the stroller?: Sharon Wilson; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:30 AM

Edmundh - I can't find the set of mugs, but Cafepress has a lot of merchandise (including large and small mugs) with This Little Piggy on it: http://www.cafepress.com/buy/piggy+market/-/source_searchBox: Kris; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:36 AM

Pi-ran-has are very boney and taste like the bottom of the river, like catfish, only there isn't as much eat on them. Go ahead, ask me how I know...: Katrina; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:54 AM

Katrina, how do you know????: Kris; | Jun 02, 2008 at 10:58 AM

Now I'm afraid to oblige.: Theo; | Jun 02, 2008 at 11:00 AM

OMGpiggies!!!1! :-) So cute!! I'm never eating bacon again. Seriously.: Miranda; | Jun 02, 2008 at 11:06 AM

Funny you should ask...and yet another story in the continuing saga of My Norwegian Father- was a sailor, a Merchant Mariner, for over 20 years and stopped in lots of countries, and apparently had an interesting threshhold for wierd...and I think eating catfish is weird...I did not inherit that particular gene.: Katrina; | Jun 02, 2008 at 12:19 PM

Two out of three major Western religions don't eat pig. Makes ya think. Piggies are cuuuuuuuttttteeeee. Except for "Babe: Pig in the City." That movie was weird. (First one is teh awesome).: berthaservant; | Jun 02, 2008 at 12:41 PM

Speed-Reader's Dyslexia strikes again: I briefly thought the post headline said "Holy Bacon Tits!" This comment has been brought to you by Victoria's Secret and Hillshire Farms. And by the number 2.: Theo; | Jun 02, 2008 at 01:19 PM

I wonder how my cats would take to having one of these as their new brother or sister...;-): musicchick2; | Jun 02, 2008 at 01:37 PM

Quoth berthaservant: "Two out of three major Western religions don't eat pig. Makes ya think." But isn't that because they believe they're UNCLEAN? Western religions aren't generally concerned with how cute something is. If they were we probably wouldn't have had all those holy wars and crusades.: Sarah; | Jun 02, 2008 at 01:44 PM

Cont.: Or if we did, they would be between nuffs and bleeners instead of Christians and Saracens, I guess.: Sarah; | Jun 02, 2008 at 01:45 PM

NEVURRR iit tehm. LURVE tehm.: jmuhj; | Jun 02, 2008 at 01:48 PM

I am forwarding this via email to my 10 year old daughter (who just got her first email and complains she never gets anything lol) who LOVES LOVES LOVES pigs!: Claudia; | Jun 02, 2008 at 02:13 PM

Who needs Bac-Os? You can just toss a couple of these little fellers into your salads.: chanpon; | Jun 02, 2008 at 03:48 PM

". . . as big as a small labrador or springer spaniel." Yes the bebehs are adorable, but do youremember the Vietnamese pot-bellied pigs craze? Where are they all now? I am so, so sorry for being a troll about this, but I keep thinking of abandoned adult pet pigs in a few years.: BGee; | Jun 02, 2008 at 04:03 PM

Farm animals are reduced to being thought of as food - even on this blog where "bacon" is joked about when showing these gentle intelligent creatures. If we all profess to love animals so much, how about we don't joke about their deaths and stop eating them. Because dead pigs, really aren't funny. Cute is one thing, but how about some actual compassion.: ali; | Jun 02, 2008 at 05:21 PM

Thank you Ali! It is one thing to joke about eating a cute animal you'd never actually eat- nomnomming kitten ears and baby toesies- but it is just sad when it is an animal that some people actually kill and eat.: Bonnie on Gumdrop Mountain; | Jun 02, 2008 at 06:16 PM

Ali and Semanticats... I'm with you. I only have been a vegetarian for a few months, but I don't miss eating meat at all, especially when I see these adorables... Oh, and I've lost 30 pounds. Just a bonus... ;-): Daphne Moss; | Jun 02, 2008 at 06:58 PM

Congrats on going veg Daphne! It's the best step you can take to help animals, yourself and the environment. Way to go! And thanks for the kind words Daphne and Bonnie. I thought I might get booed for my comment. But it's nice to see that some people feel the same way. Bacon is not cute. Death is not cute. Pigs by themselves, alive and happy, are totally cute:): Ali; | Jun 02, 2008 at 07:10 PM
