Dear Hjor,
Sorry, too difficult. Rett answered khaadati. The word bhuñjati I would use
for a bhikkhu, more polite and dignified.
as to:suukara/varaaha - any difference between the pigs,
In the Co. to the Mahaaparinibbaanasutta, the Buddha's last meal,
suukaramaddava is used: pork stew, of a a pig. I know that different
interpretations are given.
Perhaps varaaha is not used of flesh of a pig.

Nina.
