Wikipedia definition
1. Boar taintBoar taint is the offensive odour or taste that can be evident during the cooking or eating of pork or pork products derived from non-castrated male pigs once they reach puberty. It is only found in a small minority of pigs and can be found in both males and females as the chemicals that cause the smell are produced in the intestines as well as the testes. Studies show that about 75% of consumers are sensitive to boar taint so it is necessary for pork producers to control it.
