Oh, it's just back bacon, unsmoked, and, I think, soaked in brine and rolled in a meal made from ground yellow peas. I get mine from a farmer north of 7 .... damn fine eating.
Of course, one has to consider that not eating pork products could be a survival advantage in hot climes .... trichinosis could be a problem. And quite often religious prohibitions of certain foods come from social practices that have developed over the years. Lent is a good example.
