I'm still waiting for you to show where eating raw meat will make you "sick and die" as you claimed.
I never said it will make you sick and die as in every single time, but enough
times that entities like the CDC, FDA, doctors, health organizations warn
about the dangers of undercooked meats. The quote I used alluded to the
fact that humans can and do get sick and die by eating raw and undercooked
meat unlike carnivores like lions. The point being lions digestive systems do
not need their raw meat "prepared", frozen, cooked, or other ways to ward off
harmful effects that can crop up when or if humans consume totally unprepared
raw meat.
United States Department of Agriculture"Is it dangerous to eat raw or undercooked ground beef?" Yes. Raw and undercooked meat may contain harmful bacteria.
USDA recommends not eating or tasting raw or undercooked ground beef.
To be sure all bacteria are destroyed, cook meat loaf, meatballs, and hamburgers
to a safe minimum internal temperature of 160 ?F. Use a food thermometer to check
that they have reached a safe internal temperature. http://www.fsis.usda.gov/factsheets/ground_beef_and_food_safety/index.aspNew York Department of HealthTrichinosis is a food-borne disease caused by a microscopic parasite.
Anyone who eats undercooked meat of infected animals can develop trichinosis.
Pork products are implicated more often than other meats.
The symptoms usually start with fever, muscle soreness,
pain and swelling around the eyes. Thirst, profuse sweating, chills,
weakness and tiredness may develop. Chest pain may be experienced
since the parasite may become imbedded in the diaphragm.
Failure to treat could be fatal.
