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.
lmao
edit: i was going to quote some interesting parts of the article, but, really, you should read it. it’s all interesting!
See, I would expect people with brain worms to vote RFK
The “brainworm population” is under represented in modern politics.
Gerrymandering ruins everything lol
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
Well now I’m even hungrier…
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.
Trichinosis from bear isn’t much harder to get than salmonella from chicken.
Is there enough time for any of them to get on the ballot?
Maybe RFK Jr could change his running mate?
No, sadly none of the worms survived the procedure.
Rare because cooking rare bear is rare.
sounds like the bear won in the end
That’s not what it means to “choose the bear.”
In this particular case, I’m glad they chose the bear vs the alternative.

Humans are omnivores.

Relatives of the Goldilocks family had difficulty bearing the news.
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 😮💨
The Kennedy’s?
Now THERE’S a headline you don’t see every day
That was one dramatic ride of a headline
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.
Yes trichinosis can be avoided like salmonella by ensuring a meat is raised to a safe temp.
This gives a new meaning to bear with me
