RE: Paz: Meat and other foods raw or cooked

[Guest guest]

>>>Raw milk, raw eggs, and raw meat all have health benefits and if they are

good quality it is better to eat them raw, or rare.

Agreed, but I do hope everyone would keep in mind general food safety issues,

i.e. raw pork carries a trichinosis risk, salmonella cautions re eggs and

poultry meat, etc. In purchased meats, rare steaks and roasts are safer than

rare hamburger because with large cuts, anything exposed in handling is cooked.

With hamburger, much as I prefer rare, I'll only have it that way if it's my own

beef from the butcher I know. Commercially processed hamburger gets cooked

through for safety here.

One good case study on raw meat and human parasites and you would change your

mind
