Wait if they had cooked the bear more, they’d have been eating dead worms instead of live ones? Safer I guess, but still not at all appetizing imho.
A lot of the meat you eat already has parasites in it. You probably have parasites in you right now. But they’re very, very small, and cooking kills them and their eggs just fine. You’d have to put the meat under a microscope to really see them.
A lot? Trichinosis has almost been eliminated in pork. An old study looking for a particular parasite found little to none depending on the product. Here is another study showing very low incidence of parasites in meat products, but also includes fresh produce in the study which had higher rates than some meats.
So I disagree that “A lot” is correct.
Yes trichinosis can be avoided like salmonella by ensuring a meat is raised to a safe temp.
Dam! 😨 What a bunch of morons.
Even in the Stone Age, Homo sapiens had learned to cook their food before eating it.
That was one dramatic ride of a headline
The Kennedy’s?
What is the Kennedy? And what thing belonging to it are you referring to?
Oh, his bear?
His worm.
Everyone is criticizing them, but you know what they say… some days ya eat the bar, some days, the bar eats you.
The health experts noted how tricky it can be to identify and diagnose these rare cases but flagged periorbital edema and the eosinophilia as being key clinical clues to the grizzly infections
Sounds unbearable 😮💨
RFK Jr.‘s fans be wildin’
sounds like the bear won in the end
So they killed a bear to eat but had no idea the proper way to cook it. Such a waste, idiots.
NatureDarwin finds a way.Your idiots were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should
Always feels weird when a city dweller like me, seems to have more common sense knowledge like this than people who literally hunt animals to eat.
This kind of thing tends to happen when frugivorous apes attempt to eat meat for no reason.
Humans are omnivores.
Im glad I could clear that up for you.
True but I’d just like to sit and admire the word frugivorous for a moment
I’m a fan of fungivorous, it just seems like something a fun guy would say.
You’ve really never encountered a biology textbook, huh?
You’ve never really encountered this thing called cooking, huh?
It’s clear one of us hasn’t.
Family stricken with rare brain worms after eating undercooked bear
Family stricken with rare brain worms after eating undercooked bear!!!
FFS
Sorry… What’s happening?

And repetition. Plus redundancy.
Don’t forget the whatthefuckery
That’s not what it means to “choose the bear.”
In this particular case, I’m glad they chose the bear vs the alternative.
Is there enough time for any of them to get on the ballot?
Maybe RFK Jr could change his running mate?
The Worm Party.
No, sadly none of the worms survived the procedure.
Are they sure that’s the direction of causation? Because eating undercooked bear is the sort of behavior I’d expect from people who were already infected with brain worms.
It’s the same thing you get eatting undercooked pork. Only recently did the pork industry manage to get it mostly out of their herds so now the “recommended temp” to cook pork is dropping.
But it’s still very common in bears so you have to treat it like pork and cooked it to 165*
which sucks, I’d love to try a juicy rare black bear steak.
Have you tried Grindr? They’re out there, champ
Using the dating app for homosexual folks leads to black bear steak?
If you’re lucky! Wink
It leads to sexy fun time shenanigans with black bears, whether you eat steak during your sexy fun time shenanigans is up to you.
Yeah daddy gimme that juicy black bear meat
Well now I’m even hungrier…
I would expect that to lead to black bear sausage rather than steak.
I’ve had some bear before. Smoked overnight, so essentially pasteurized. Was actually really good.
Same, that’s one of my favourite ways to eat it, basically if it’s a big enough whole muscle it gets ham-a-fied, the rest goes into grind for summer sausage and meatballs.
lmao
edit: i was going to quote some interesting parts of the article, but, really, you should read it. it’s all interesting!
Trichinosis from bear isn’t much harder to get than salmonella from chicken.
See, I would expect people with brain worms to vote RFK
Rfk jr, the poster boy for “my brain was eaten by worms”
The “brainworm population” is under represented in modern politics.
Gerrymandering ruins everything lol
<glances at MAGAs>
Are you sure about that?
Well what the fuck
Also called “group suicide”.
