Curly, Wooly, Hairy.

Mangalitsa.. or Mangalitza.. or Mangalica.

They all refer to the same breed of pig from Hungary and raised throughout the Balkans.

The great thing besides their cuddly coat..
is that instead of being raised for meat.. they're raised for Lard!

Oddly their fat is more unsaturated than other breeds.
Meaning its lighter, cleaner, and melts at a lower heat.

And all that equals delicious porky flavor that tastes different than any pig you've had before.
