I didn’t like it that much when it was cheaper - though I did like home-cured corned beef.
I liked pork, too; but when they decided to make it all lower in fat, it didn’t have much taste anymore.
I still like ham...but even that doesn’t seem as good as it used to be.
The last 2 falls I have bought half hogs from a relative who is regenerative farming. The hogs are pastured & get non-soy feed and lead a very different life from commercially raised hogs. The meat is higher quality & very flavorful. It’s not cheap to do this, but I won’t buy grocery store commercially raised pork any more.
