[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1515849, member: 18945"] A hog story... Dad raised a pen of hogs decades ago, mostly on old bread and 30 gal trashcans full of leftovers from a local restaurant he had a deal with, plus he mixed up slop made from 'shorts'. Dad paid about $5 for every trashcan full. I came home from overseas for 30 days leave and every night we ate at that place and after supper, drove around back and loaded those trash cans full of leftovers. I don't know how that guy stayed in business. Every week for the whole month I was home, we ended up picking out 10-20 metal forks, knives, spoons out of the slop and every once in a while, one of those big metal serving spoons. After Dad died in '07, and I cleaned up his place, I found a 5 gal bucket full of that restaurant silverware. I think Dad finished them on corn..not sure as I had to go back overseas at the end of my 30 days leave. [/QUOTE]
