Is this haram? If not, why not?

Passing through a local Christmas market I came across a stall selling roast pork rolls. To advertise them stood a larger than life figure of a standing pig, wearing chef's whites, an apron and holding a knife.

To my astonishment a Muslim woman in traditional garb stood beside it and had her fellow Muslim friend take a pic.

Surely this must be as bad as actually eating the pork, to be posing with what was clearly there to promote eating it?

    Friend if it's against your belief to eat pork you shouldn't advertise it either.

    Why would it be bad?

    Catholicism is the One True Faith and a person can know this with certainty by reciting the rosary carefully every day.

    you can make up any interpretation you want, really... because none of it his grounded in fact.

    If I had to guess, I'd say no. The Quran says don't eat pork. that's it.
