Why does raw meat have to taste soo good?

DON'T EAT THAT, YOU'LL GET WORMS!! But I love raw ground beef, Grandmom.

I wish i'd get a tape worm... might lose some dam weight... :/

I'm really suprised that "getting worms" didn't take off in Hollywood when Bet Midler had them and lost all of that weight. If I remember right she got them from Sushi. Ugh...maybe it did and we just haven't heard about it?

When I was a kid I would get into trouble for eating raw hamburger. I didn't like it cooked...but would slip into the kitchen and sneak some raw. It would probably make me good and sick with today's beef. I still like my steak bloody. And I still eat spinach and asparagus cold out of the can....yummm.

...tapeworms WERE a diet fad...

Sushi meats that are raw have to be frozen at some low temp for a minumum time in the US to kill worms. However, fresh albi is so good. Don't know anyone waho has gotten worms from tuna. Now I sure would not eat raw cod or any fish that has been in fresh water! yuck!

So I'll admit, the Sushi I've had before was really good, but - Eww. Raw beef? I guess I'm already not a big fan of rare steak or anything.

But, if I tried raw meat like that, I'd personally prefer it be frozen for at least a week. If I feed raw meat to my dogs after a week's or more freezing, I'd do the same for myself, for the sake of health.

I can't eat cooked tuna. AT ALL. I cannot stop puking throughout the night if I eat it, even if its just a little nibble or even if I put my tongue on it.

I can only eat raw tuna, and that's all I have in regards to tuna. I don't plan on eating raw meat or anything like that though. I've only tried raw fish (not just tuna) and that's all I plan to eat.

Two words: Fish tapeworms.
