Oink in Al Ain
 
Is it available in any of the shops or do I need a road trip to AD / Dubai?

Souq planet near Tawam
Spinneys in the centre of town (but not Al Bateen branch).

You'll have to go to Canada to find Oink. :)

Considering Al Ain is in the Middle East, which is predominantly Muslim, I'd hazard a guess at pork.

Thank you-it seemed a bit too obvious to be correct :)

Is the OP talking in code to avoid the Anti-pig Department of the local Constabulary ?

These days Pork is readily available in Abu Dhabi. Usually in big supermarkets like Spinneys you will notice the sign
" caution pork products"
