That would depend on where you live. Try getting pork in Saudi Arabia. You will need the right connections.But pork isn't a luxury...
pigs are specially trained to dig up the truffles, which grow underground. Apparently this has been going on since Roman days.

I disagree, all meat is a luxury.But pork isn't a luxury...

I do wonder why Truffles are represented by pigs on the world map, however.
Well, Judaism and Islam forbid the consumption of pork ,that's why its not in the game.
Pigs were a resource in civ4 and it had both those religions
That makes sense. I played many Civ IV games in which a country dominated by Judaism or Islam had pigs in pastures, and I wondered if it should be so.Well, Judaism and Islam forbid the consumption of pork ,that's why its not in the game.
They're more conscientious now in designing Civ5. They don't have Stalin and Mao as leaders (not that I would want them anyway). They asked the Pueblo council for permission on using Puebloans as a civ and did not put them in the game because they refused.
Nope, they are sticking with one leader per civ, and a leader who was in charge when the UU or UB was relevant. "observant jews don't eat them" is a stupid reason to not have pigs as a food resource. It's because there is no healthiness measure for each city, so it doesn't make sense to have a variety of food resources like in civ4. So why are there "unclean" clams and crabs, hmmm?
Слава Сталина!

Why does that matter? In the game you are not forced to eat pork.
