The prohibition of pork products is from a desert people.  In the desert 
resources are limited and in general pigs eat mostly the same stuff people 
eat.  It was either a pig or a person.  Pork production competes with people 
production.

Interesting book that addresses the histories of pork and the sacred cow is 
"Cows, Pigs, Wars, and Witches."
