Pork is not a healthy choice<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

False<\/p>\n

Pork is a healthy meat that contains no added growth hormones as their use is prohibited for Canadian pork production. Quebec pork is also free of pathogens, antibiotic residue and other contaminants. Pigs are fed an all-natural diet consisting mainly of cereals such as corn, barley and soybean, as well as vitamin and mineral supplements for optimal nutrition.<\/p>\n\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/div>\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Quebec pork is widely available in grocery stores<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

true<\/p>\n

You can find the Le porc du Qu\u00e9bec logo at all major supermarkets.\u00a0 However, it is important to know that grocery stores are responsible for managing their supply directly with processing companies and for labelling the meat with the Le porc du Qu\u00e9bec logo. It is therefore possible that not all Quebec pork sold in stores is identified as such. If in doubt, ask your butcher.<\/p>\n\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/div>\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Pig farmers are always concerned for their animals\u2019 welfare<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

true<\/p>\n

Throughout the supply chain, animal welfare is at the heart of our activities. These include ensuring pigs have enough space to move around, providing them with accessories to enrich their environment, adjusting the temperature of their pens for optimal comfort, etc. In Quebec, processing facilities are located throughout the territory, allowing for shorter transportation times, which benefits both the animals and the environment.<\/p>\n\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/div>\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
