Swine flu: Of course it had to get ridiculous

This article from yesterday's NYT details the politics behind naming of a flu. I get it. But the part that made me just shake my head in wonder is:

An Israeli deputy health minister — an ultra-Orthodox Jew — said his country would do the same (call it "Mexican flu"), to keep Jews from having to say the word “swine.” However, his call seemed to have been largely ignored.

I know where in the Torah it says that my tribe shouldn't eat pork. (Leviticus and Deuteronomy, if you're bored spitless sometime.) Can someone point out the part in the Torah that describes the sin of...talking about pork?

Oooh, heresy.
