Picked up a Sparkle Drive Mod today. I owned a Pork Loin for a while and compared the two pedals tonight too. The sparkle drive definitely was a more "green" type overdrive but I liked it because it felt like it fit what I wanted it to do a bit better. For many people I'm sure they would have felt the same about the Pork Loin. These pedals are so good. The clean knob is why I was focused on these 2. It's such a cool feature and one I wish more builders would use. Anyway, too lazy to take a picture and it just looks like all the others.
I also played a soul food for quite a while. It is sweet. I prefer a different sound out of my dirt but I was tempted to buy it being an awesome $60 pedal. The nicest part imo was the tone knob. It was subtle but worked. The whole range was useable and the transition between pickups was nice because with the tone knob down, was just like a presence knob smoothing everything out slightly, and on the higher settings just added a nice chime. Definitely recommended if that's what you are looking for.
