Another Italian Mixup

My host parents asked the other night, when David was over, which religion it was that didn't eat pig. After having established that Jews are the group in question, I went on to attempt to say that David was Jewish, but he still ate pork. However, I miss-spoke. I tried to say "David e ebreo, e lui mangia maiale." However, I instead said " . . . e lui mangia maialone." Technically, I said that he is Jewish but still eats big pigs. However, in Italian slang, "big pig" means "pimp." My host parents laughed so hard they practically cried. They will probably tell stories about my Turkish, pimp-eating boyfriend.
