They sell pig ears to feed to dogs.
My aunts used to buy live chickens and watch them be slaughtered in a kosher
manner.  This required slitting their throats, waiting for them to bleed to
death, soaking up the blood with salt, and reciting a blessing.  Blood is not
kosher for some reason.  

Why is the skin of a dead animal any less alive than its muscles?
