True, but decades of living with a bad gall bladder taught me to avoid
fatty pork.

I have the easiest gall bladder extraction story in history. I never,
ever had stomach aches. Then I had one. I rationalized that the problem
was my beer-soaked liver; then the pain disappeared by the next day.

Six months went by, and it happened again. It hurt more, so I went to
emergency to get the bad news about my liver. Six hours later, my gall
bladder was yanked. I demanded to spend the night in the hospital,
because I didn't want my wife to possibly deal with another emergency,
and they made it so.

That's it. I didn't know I had a problem, but it was gone in a flash.
I overheard two medical professionals say, "His liver isn't that bad".
Well...that didn't help. I went right back to my old habits.
