Now that makes a lot of sense.

Also if any show had a pig in it I wasn’t allowed to watch it (no peppa pig or charlottes web for me). Also wasn’t allowed to say “pig”. I had to say “P-I-G” and spell it out if I wanted to refer to it. (Family doesn’t eat pork)
I wasn’t made to close my eyes, but my grandfather always acted horrified like it was a dangerous health risk. They are spreading germs!

A lot of people don’t eat pork, and that’s their decision, but I don’t see how that makes “pig” a dirty word. Or pigs an obscene thing to see on TV..
