Speaking of pork...

Can eating too much pork make you fail a drug test? Apparently so, if the claims of Chinese Olympic athletes can be believed. Apparently, a substance called clenbuterol, more normally used to treat breathing problems, is sometimes used to keep livestock leaner than it would otherwise be. It's also banned for IOC-tested athletes, so a couple of them are claiming that they ate too much pork and that's why they failed their drug tests.
