“There’s no reason to keep listening to old wives tales and cooking the crap out of it.”
My husband won’t eat pork after he saw an episode of “House”, where a worm migrated to some lady’s eye. House said it was from eating pork years ago.
Yea, cause we all take medical advice from a fictional tv show.
Don’t let your husband know about pork tape worms. If you eat salad that has not been thoroughly washed you will can ingest a pork tape worm egg. That egg hatches in your gut and a little larva gets in your blood and goes to your brain. It can’t complete its life cycle there and gets encapsulated. Depending on the location in the brain it can cause a problem. On a CT scan they can cause a lesion that looks like a tumor. Imagine being told you have a brain tumor and then it turns out to be something from a tape worm.
