Move

I think that by default we think of the meat first and foremost. I recommend moving this to ham (disambiguation), and having Ham as the real meat of the term. John Stephenson 21:28, 25 September 2007 (CDT)

Hogs and pigs

Is it worth describing ham as meat processed from 'hogs'? We never use 'hog' in UK English so I think it could be confusing. John Stephenson 22:27, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

"Hog" seems to be the general U.S. technical term for "pig" in articles about such things as making ham. I didn't know it wasn't used in the U.K. Everyone understands "pig", so do whatever you think is necessary. Hayford Peirce 22:32, 26 September 2007 (CDT)
