Description: Here's a commercial for Pork brought to you by the National Pork Producers Council featuring their slogan, "America, You're Leaning on Pork" (meant to emphasize the lean and non-fatty quality of the meat)

"Leaning on pork" - so would that be a pork shoulder?

This was before the more popular "Pork: The Other White Meat" slogan. Other short-lived advertising campaigns for pork included:

"There's Only One Pork" (confusing to consumers who thought they were running out)

"Didja Ever Notice that Work and Pork Don't Rhyme?"

"Be Pork. Be Very Pork"

"Wouldn't it Be Nice To Drink a Bowl of Pork?"

"Pork: You're Soaking In It"

"Pooooooooorrrrkkkkk....Come out to PLAaaayyyyy...."

"Whatever it is I think I see, becomes a piece of pork to me."

This aired on local Chicago TV on Thursday, June 16th 1983.
