Pork Belly - A Commodity

In case you wondering what I was too busy with yesterday, so as not to write a proper entry, then wonder no more...

Besides being really busy with legitimate work, some of the busyness may have been attributed to some mild dicking around on my behalf. For example do you know that Pork Belly is an actual commodity that's traded on the Stock Exchange? Why on earth would Pork Belly be a commodity?

When someone told me this yesterday I scoffed in disbelief, however after some research: apparently there actually is a serious demand for the stuff, so big in fact, that it is a traded commodity! Now that's food for thought!
