Is eating raw meat bad for you?

Question

I know that eating meat from an animal that was farmed can give you seminella poisining but wild meat doesn't do that to you if it isn't cooked, but is it still bad for you?

Answer 1

WHAT? Seminella if it's farmed? Uh, that's a new one.

Anyway, you can't eat raw meat because animals, ESPECIALLY wild animals, have parasites that are often killed when you cook them. Otherwise, you ingest them and you, too, become infected.

Answer 2

Wild meat can carry some organisms and parasites that are much worse! Never eat uncooked meat, wild or farmed, unless it has been raised and prepared under the strictest of conditions for the purpose of being eaten raw.

Answer 3

I would not be touching uncooked meat especially from the wild, you could end up with something far worse than salmonella poisoning!
If you want to eat raw meat Japenese prepare raw beef and fish thats edible.

Answer 4

Yes, it certainly is. Not only can a person get salmonella poisoning from uncooked or undercooked chicken, but at least with undercooked beef, E-coli poisoning can occur and cause kidney damage and/or kidney failure in the person especially in children and older adults but middle-age are Not immune from complications such as that. There are all kinds of food borne bacteria that can be present in uncooked or undercooked meat so please only eat meat that has been properly cooked according to federal recommendations and standards (such as what temperature that hospitals are supposed to cook their meat/food at).

Answer 5

If it is healthy and not spoiled and butchered properly it would be OK. You don't know if it is because there so many people handling that meat that you don't know about. Some people don't wash their hands after using the toilet. etc. People who eat raw meat have a tolerance for some things that would make you sick. be careful.

Answer 6

You could get parasites from raw meat. Wild is more likely to be infested than farm raised.

Answer 7

Meat should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees and above. Anything lower allows bacteria to live and multiply leading to foodborne illness.

Answer 8

Hell yes! you need to cook the meat all the way threw to get all the germs and bacteria out of it! you could still get a disease with wild meat

Answer 9

Well yeah, it'll give you cramps or something like that. But eating raw meat brings up the possibility of getting worms, mate...

Answer 10

Hate to rain on your parade but the bacterial risk is the same. Possibly even more so in wild game because the butchering normally takes place under less than sanatary conditions.
