What kind of pork is Yogur-ton?question.gif

ans.gifPigs themselves are nothing special. They're just regular pigs.

(They are three yuan hybridization of Landrace, large Yorcshire and Duroc, generally called LWD. Unlabeled Pork sold commonly at the grocery stores is usually this kind although there are some slight differences. )

What they eat makes Yogur-tons different from
regular pigs.

This special food is processed like yogurt by our original fermentation technology. The main raw materials are wheat, soybeans, vegetables, milk, and yogurt, etc., which are carefully selected domestic by-product food.
(It must be good since they are mix of well-balanced nourishing food and lactic acid bacteria beverage. )


Don't pigs eat dry food like corn?
Do they eat something like yogurt?shock.gif


fe.gifYes, they do! It is called a "liquid feeding" to feed liquefied food. This feeding method is common in Europe.

What are the advantages of "liquid feeding"?
question.gif

ans.gifEven though the most common sickness for pigs is pneumonia, the ones that are fed this way have less chance of getting pneumonia.When pigs are fed dry food, the food hovers in the pigsty. It s said that sucking the hovering food causes pigs to get pneumonia.So the "liquid feeding" eliminates this worry.And also the liquefied food enhances the pigs’ digestion and cuts down the odor of their manure. If you think about it, when we are sick, humans do eat liquefied food like "porridge" too for easier digestion. There is also a theory that says liquefied food prevents from overeating because it contains lots of water and keeps your stomach full. Pigs may be fundamentally the same as humans. There is no need of antibiotics because there aren't many cases of diseases.

Yogur-tons are healthy and safe!

healthy.gifYes, they are! Yogur-tons are not administered any antibiotics till they are shipped after two months old.

What are the features of the Yogur-tons meat?question.gif

ans.gifAsagiri Yogur-tons have fine fibers, which make them tender and delicious. And the fat penetrating into each cell gives it an extra sweetness.

Pork is a healthy food that contains lots of Vitamin B. Recently the study says the quality of the fat is important for human health. Unsaturated fatty acids like linolenic acid and oleic acid contained in pork help reduce cholesterol in the blood.

Especially, linolenic acid is effective to prevent adult diseases like strokes and heart attacks, etc. and is also helpful for allergy prevention. Asagiri Yogur-tons contain moreof these unsaturated fatty acids than commonly sold pork.
