parasites

Question
I love raw meat from wild animals like deer or all kind of fish but I am still afraid of parasites in their meat. How big is the danger eating raw meat?

Answer
The danger is negligible. I and many other RVAFers have eaten raw wild game and raw wild seafood in huge quantities over decades and have not had a single parasite experience with such wild fare. Ironically, the only time I ever got parasites was after I had eaten some horsemeat(the horse being fed on grains/oats as well as grass, no doubt). Anyway, that time, the tapeworm had no negative effect on me, and, anyway, it was very easy to get rid of via anti-parasite drugs from the local pharmacy.

In short, it's nothing to worry about.

HTH,
