'Vegetarian-fed' indicates pigs ate only GMO corn and soy, which is a suboptimal diet despite sounding wholesome. The 'all-natural' claim exists purely as marketing.

Administering antibiotics to pigs is no longer permitted commercially, making 'raised without antibiotics' claims meaningless as a differentiator. No commercially viable pig farm feeds pigs exclusively grass.
