Unclean doesn't always mean "dirty". A lot of things that are considered unclean by different religions are considered so because they're spiritually unclean, rather than literally filthy. Historical riligious objections to pork are probably because of human-transmissible parasites and disease like trichinosis, which aren't as much of a concern anymore.
