Does Pork need a Wagyu moment? -- We buy some of our meat from the Supermarket and some from the Butcher, depending on which is the most convenient. My wife Paula usually handles that, so I'm thankful for what we get. 

We have been noticing lately that the quality of the meat from the Supermarkets is getting better. They have lifted their game, and it would be affecting Butcher, I reckon. 

I did go shopping at the Supermarket the other day and wanted to study the meat section to see what innovations were going on. The Lamb and Beef products look quite enticing, and the packaging has improved. 

I couldn't help but notice that the Pork offering seemed a little bland. Don't get me wrong, I love Pork, but I'm sure its blandness in the meat case stops more people from selecting it above Beef or Lamb. Come to think of it, you rarely see it on restaurant menus these days. Does Pork need a Wagyu moment?
