What do they mean by pork?
In some areas, people use the word "pork" instead of "money". This is a kind of slang, which some people use in communication. Food is an indispensable part of life, and money is also an indispensable resource in our life. So it is not surprising that the word "pork" is used instead of "money". In some cases, it can increase the vividness of communication, and also reflects people's attention to pork in food culture.
"Pork" can also be a symbol, representing our deep feelings for family, friends and relatives. In China culture, the Year of the Pig is one of the twelve zodiac signs, and it is regarded as a symbol of "bumper harvest, good luck and good food". On some occasions, we will continue this tradition and prepare pork products to entertain guests or express our feelings. Although this symbolic "pork" has nothing to do with real pork, it is still an important element in China culture, representing our cherished feelings and friendship.
