Viking: You're a good swine, Hamhock. Hamhock: Thanks, Tyr. Viking: Y'know, when I was a boy, I had a swine just like you as a pet. But do you know what he served to eat at that feast? Hamhock: Sushi? Viking: Swine!! Hamhock: Oh, I doubt Lord Snortles would have eaten that... I named him Lord Snortles. He was sharp as a tack! I taught him tricks and everything. When he was fully grown, my father, Odin, threw a feast. I assumed it was for Lord Snortles' birthday.

Should have gotten his swine from the same farm where Thor got his goats…

Tyr was just a piggy eater.

Thor’s goats didn’t reanimate on their own, but after he swung his hammer over the skin and bones. Reason why you could never eat the marrow (break the bones). Anyways Valhalla did have a pig that regenerated on its own that they feasted on though.

Not unlike the perpetual ham that kept Lil’ Abner’s fambly fed.

Well, Hamhock, Lord Snortles WAS the guest of honor. Kind of.

Särimner was the name of the pig that was eaten by the gods of Valhall every night and resurrected next morning. I have a vague memory of having read that they threw his bones in a pile (for easier (needed?) recreation), but cant find a reference to this point at the moment.
