Yes, and that was a genius ad campaign. Pork is actually red meat too, just lighter. Beef is the heavyweight champion of the red meat family.
Here’s the kicker: grilling doesn’t change the category. A well-done steak is still red meat. It’s like putting a tuxedo on a lion—still a lion.
So next time someone says, “I only eat white meat,” you can smugly point to their pork chop. Oops.
