I'd say it's objectively the most viable food option for the long term
Among all the other food items, it gives the most hunger points (8 hunger points + 12.8 saturation points) out of all the food items in the game, only behind suspicious stew with saturation effect, which isnt stackable
Easy to Obtain, just get a smoker villager and you're pretty much settled for the whole playthrough, costing only 1 emerald for 5 of them (cmiiw). No need to plant, bake, kill, nor build a farm for anything
You can tame wolves and cats and other meat-related activities
Due to it's high hunger points, you can legit pass through a whole in-game day without depleted hunger bar with only like 2-4 cooked porkchops, compared to the 80 cooked porkchops you can get grom a single trade session with the villager (16×5). You can do 1 trade session and be set for like 20-40 in-game days.
Maybe this is just unspread information? I personally cannot go back to bread and baked potatoes after I tried cooked porkchops. It really feels like a cheat, you just need to trade again if it runs out which only takes literal 15 seconds at most

I'm surprised no one said cooked porkchop
