It's true: Orcs ARE delicious. All the elves in those japanese cartoons seem to think so, at least.
That's because the japanese keep depicting orcs as pig-men. It was once explained to me that in the first edition if D&D that was imported there, the illustration of orcs had pig snouts, and that's what stuck.
