In ancient times, eating pork put one at risk of developing trichinosis, a disease caused by worms found in pork. Pork was considered unclean, unhealthy(lots of fat), and cruel--pigs are extremely intelligent animals.
In The Bible, God tells us not to kill.

In Christianity, some believe that dietary restrictions from the Old Testament no longer apply after the teachings of Jesus, effectively permitting the consumption of pork. In Judaism, however, observant Jews continue to follow biblical dietary laws that prohibit the consumption of pork.

There are several relgions who will not eat pork as they believe God has forbidden them from doing so. Muslims don't eat pork because they believe it to be a filthy disease-carrying beast, which in medical terms may well be true. The Qur'an strictly forbids them from eating pork: "He has only forbidden you dead meat and blood and the flesh of swine and any food over which the Name of Allah has not been invoked."( Qur'an 2:173). The Jewish people are also forbidden pork for similar reasons as Muslims. As well as considering the pig to be an unclean beast, the Jews are forbidden from eating any animal with cloven hooves: "....and the swine, because it divideth the hoof yet yet does not chew the cud, it is unclean...." , (Deuteronomy 14:8). Seventh Day Adventists also refrain from pork for the same reasons. There are also some people who will argue that all Christians should not pork because Jesus said that He had not come to destroy the law and prophets, but to fulfil them. (refer Matthew 5 17:19).
In the New Testament, there is a shift away from strict dietary laws found in the Old Testament, including those about not eating pork. In the book of Acts, it is mentioned that all foods are considered clean. This change in perspective is credited to Jesus Christ's teachings and the new covenant he established.
Yes, in the New Testament, specifically in the book of Acts, there is a passage that describes a vision in which Peter is told by God that all animals are now clean to eat, including pork. This is often interpreted as a symbolic representation of the acceptance of Gentiles into the Christian faith.
