Proof that this is all psychological as pork has no discernible smell, certainly not that could be distinguished from any other meat.
Do you like/eat beef bacon or veal bacon? If so, then you like the taste of bacon (or a pale imitation of bacon). |

Hmm...mmm...pork.... :)
It's fascinating how there are many Muslims who will do every possible haram thing but draw the line at eating pork. Which is so beloved by the rest of the world. Never quite figured that bit out. |

Slow cookers are brilliant. Often use them at home if we're going to be out all day: 15 mins prep, and it's ready when we're back -- don't need to worry about an exact time, either.

The smell of bacon cooking is very distinct from that of pork (and one of the most delicious smells imaginable). But if you are talking about the smell from cooking it, how do you get that at Spinneys or wherever?
it's a very distinguished smell and if you can't smell it then clearly you are accustomed to it.....all the supermarkets which have the port session reek of the smell. |

MAT is correct. It's 1500 years of cultural tradition that is telling you to avoid pork. Which I still find odd because pork has traditionally been rarely available and pigs never seen in the Islamic world yet it was still so well known as haram. Funny to see how it was turned into a bogeyman, and I suspect it became one because it was easy to keep a product never seen and never tasted a haram one compared to other things that should have become haram, such as tobacco. |

Raw meat all smells similar (except for fish) assuming its at a similar stage of putrefaction. Cured meat (regardless of the type) can smell sour or smoky depending on the type of cure but that has nothing to do with the meat itself. |

I just wonder to what extent the conditioning to dislike / be averse to it stems purely from its being haram. There are surely fairly obvious reasons for its being so -- pork contains harmful bacteria that proliferate in heat, and so when Islam came about pork was rightly seen as dangerous.

Not buying that. Bacon cooking has a smell, yes for sure, but they don't cook it in the supermarket.
