The History Channel's Modern Marvels series is one of the most fascinating and informative video programs on TV and many of its topics are about the food business. In Modern Marvels "The Pig", watch the pig transform into bacon, ham, ribs and sausage, using a high tech water knife, at Burger's Smokehouse in Missouri. Then Chef Chris Cosentino re-creates old world dishes from pig parts and culinary artisans attempt to duplicate long-vanished pork specialties like prosciutto and acorn-fed pigs.
