      You can get all kinds of parasites from unwashed or underwashed produce.

        Beth Mole, a writer at Ars Technica, has a fun example with Rat Lungworm: Burning in woman’s legs turned out to be slug parasites migrating to her brain.

        It started with a bizarre burning sensation in her feet. Over the next two days, the searing pain crept up her legs. Any light touch made it worse, and over-the-counter pain medicine offered no relief.

        and so on until it’s diagnosed, then some lifecycle/vector explanation:

        For instance, if a slug or snail traverses a leaf of lettuce, leaving a slime trail in its wake, the leaf can be contaminated with the larvae.

          I think I read somewhere people can live of sun rays or some shit like that. 😆

          Damn parasites.

      Not just this but definitely helped me in my journey. The whole idea of having to use separate cutting boards and knives just incase you get a terrible infection is totally insane.

        You make it sound like you’re vegan because you didn’t like doing dishes, lol

          I mean, that’s a good a selling point as any.

            Except you can skip that step and all of the extra cutting boards and knives if you just do your veggie prep before your meat prep.

          I’d completely understand that, though

        Same board three times: fresh veg on a clean board, raw veg after, then raw meat.

        I’m trying to do more vegetarian, but hey I made a single chicken boob stretch through a week meal prep so i think I’m doing ok

          What’s the difference between fresh vegetable and raw vegetables?

            Fresh is ready to eat, raw needs cooking

              Ahh like potatoes. What other veggies require cooking?
