>The edicts of 1492 legally expelled Jews and Muslims from Spain for hundreds of years. The Inquisition closely monitored conversos in case their conversion to Catholicism was false and they continued practicing their original religion in secret. A common practice was to invite a suspected individual to a Christian family's home and offer them a meal of pork (nearly every family in Iberia raised pigs in those days). If he refused to eat it, it was then assumed his conversion was insincere.[2]
I've been advocating obligatory pork eating for everyone every year or be deported. I'm a vegetarian by the way.
