Hey Shark, what's up? This one is pretty interesting. One thought I have that no one seems to have brought up (at least as far as I have read) is the fact that that press release makes a pretty big assumption in what it appears to mean to the company. True, leaner pork is healthier. True, leaner pork will result in higher yields per percent pig. But guess what, pork is a 200 Billion Dollar a year industry! Why's that? One of the reasons is because pork tastes good! And what makes almost all meats taste good? An appropriate fat content. Leaner does not necessarily taste better (in fact, it usually doesn't, and, you'll notice, that PR does not state that their pork tastes better). Too fat is no good either. So, you have to ask yourself, what is the optimum fat content for that type of meat? To that, I don't have an answer. I happen to agree with you, good momo play, long term value is yet to be determined.
