Nutrition
Today's pork has an average of 31% less fat, 14% fewer calories and 10 percent less cholesterol than the pork your parents and grandparents ate when they were young.

In fact there are eight cuts of pork that provide less that 180 calories and 9 grams of fat per 3-ounce cooked serving. Compare this to a skinless chicken thigh which has 178 calories and 9.3 grams of fat per 3-ounce serving and you see that pork producers have done a great job of putting their hogs on a diet.
