There's a small war in my family.

Since I married my ex-husband family members have done everything they can to bring dishes so family gatherings that contain pork products.

When I am not at the family gathering there is no pork products served. Before my marriage the family rarely had any form of pork due to factory farming practices. My aunt who pushes pork products is married to an organic farmer and is willing to chance factory farmed pork just to piss me off.

So f*ck'em I stopped going to family events and this Pork War is one of many reasons.

Mother denies that this problem exists, because anything that bothers me or insults me isn't an issue. Which is exactly why I don't do FOTs (Family Obligated Trips) with any regularity. I am done with it.
