Is feeding household waste to pigs illegal because what the average household now eats isn't good for pigs?

It's mainly because of the risk of contamination that can then get back
into our own food, as I understand it.  It doesn't help that pigs will
eat almost anything.

The pig, that has evolved to eat anything - if you ever see one with a mixied rabbit you'll know - and an immune system to cope, well you wouldn't want it to catch some imported disease you'd bought in a shop here would you?
