Apologize to the Pork is a country-rock catering band from Austin, Minnesota.

Name

The band takes its name from the "Ramen Master" vignette in the film Tampopo.

Student: Master... soup first or noodles first?

Master: First, observe the whole bowl.

Student: Yes, sir.

Master: Appreciate its gestalt. Savor the aromas. Jewels of fat glittering on the surface. Shinachiku roots shining. Seaweed slowly sinking. Spring onions floating. Concentrate on the three pork slices. They play the key role, but stay modestly hidden. First caress the surface with the chopstick tips.

Student: What for?

Master: To express affection.

Student: I see.

Master: Then poke the pork.

Student: Eat the pork first?

Master: No. Just touch it. Caress it with the chopstick tips. Gently pick it up and dip it into the soup on the right of the bowl. What's important here is to apologize to the pork by saying "see you soon." Finally, start eating-the noodles first. Oh, at this time, while slurping the noodles, look at the pork.

Student: Yes.

Master: Eye it affectionately.
