I remember once finding an ill pigeon on the sidewalk so I scooped him up, brought him home, got him fed and watered and put in a warm, dark place for recovery, then investigated his symptoms a lot more thoroughly and discovered he had E Coli and was too far gone to save. Had to euthanize him to prevent the longer more painful death he would have had otherwise. :( But the scariest part about it is I had found him right next to a neighbor's chicken coop that I know the neighbor's use for eggs and meat. I didn't know what neighbor owned the chickens ( it was kinda located in the cneter of their apartment complex ) so I just left a note on the coop about the E Coli pigeon and within a few days, there was no more chickens there.. Turns out the entire flock had E Coli and thats where the pigeon got it from, because they shared food. While it was unfortunate for the birds, that pigeon ended up saving people from a potential e coli risk especially as eggs are often eaten without being cooked all the way through

[@theboraxbandit9563]

Poor Pigeon you should have left it. Everyone has Ecoli in their bodies - especially birds! it has a function. You can test positive for E-coli and be perfectly healthy - it's a correlation. Don't blame the fireman because they at the scene of the crime.

[@the_Overture]

@@theboraxbandit9563 W-what? Yes, you may have e. coli in your gut. That does not mean you can't get bad e. coli, and that does not mean everything is fine. That bird was dying because of e. coli. I don't think you know how bacteria works...

[@theboraxbandit9563]

@@the_Overture I know exactly how bacteria works. They have a function and blaming bacteria is like blaming the fireman for turning up at a fire. For example most people who are ill have blood tests and they see that they have tested positive for ecoli 0153 or whatever strain and so they blame that bacteria - but correlation does not imply causation. There are examples of very healthy people who have the same tests and the doctors are shocked because they are not ill but intensely healthy. The thing is most healthy people don't get tested for these bacteria with their doctors which perpetuates the illusion. The system operates under the germ theory of disease and in my own study and experience this theory is false. I eat nothing but raw animal foods milk, meat and eggs and I never have any problems. I let raw meat rot in jars for 6 months+ which are full of ecoli, salmonella, listeria etc and It makes me feel wonderful. Bacteria are the clean up crew of the body, they have function and they are not here to harm you. Your body is comprised of bacteria and the more sterile your environment and food the worse your microbiome. I suggest if you actually want to understand this perspective a little better you look up the history of "germ theory vs terrain theory" as the penny may drop for you as it did for me.

A note about dry-aged meat: in addition to what's mentioned, many dry-aged meats do actually involve molding the meat. However, they use thick slabs of meat and dry it out over a very long period. About an inch or more of meat is cut off of the slab before they get a finished product. This allows the mold and other factors to flavor or change the meat, without actually exposing the part you eat to dangerous contaminants. These methods are quite costly though, so are much rarer these days and produce premium products with high price tags.

It does sound like it and they would do that kind of thing. Eating rotten meat predates that, dating back many decades, along with other extremist diet fads back in the latter half of the last century. However, the current increase in interest, and the "high" part tagged onto it, does seem linked to social media, growing out of extreme paleo, carnivore, and similar diet fads. I don't think Tufano started it, but he may have sparked the current fad.

I’ve always wanted to give fermentation a try. I think I’ll try pickles first since they dont seem too tough. I will NOT be trying anything like this though.

In Germany we have a delicacy that's literally raw minced pig meat, its called "Mett" and we Germans love it.

Them: People have eaten this for hundreds of years Me: I'm not going to take cooking advice from people who had a lifespan of about 30 years and a child mortality rate of about 50%

[@merseyviking]

Average lifespans of 30 years are rare, even in the prehistoric era. Certainly in Europe it has been around 40-60 years. But that's usually taken from grave studies which usually don't factor out child mortality (mostly because ageing skeletal remains is hard). But if you just look at the numbers for 5 years and up, the average is much higher, although it varies by period and country.

[@MrRazmut]

Their life expectancy was that low in huge part because of the child mortality, it's not like they died of old age at 30. They could expect to grow old after they survived childhood as long as they got lucky enough to never get seriously ill

[@ZeoViolet]

Mortality rates have little to do with food preservation techniques proven to work, and more to do what other horrors are in the environment around them, level of available medical care, and sources of safe nutrition and safe drinking water.

Well also, salting and/or prompt drying was a preservation method. Even the proverbial caveman generally knew the difference between fit to eat and not fit to eat.

@@SeekingTheLoveThatGodMeans7648 Raw meat could be stored in a frozen cache under stones, or a bit later, subterranean cellars dug while permafrost was melted and the ground not so hard it couldn't be penetrated by digging. Meat would keep all winter, or if you knew what you were doing and created a place that stayed frozen all year, indefinitely. Without knowing stuff like this, survival on the arid loess steppes or the tundra would have been impossible....any place where huge game grew wouldn't matter if you couldn't freeze or preserve the majority of it, and you can't make a steak with preserved jerky meat.

“raw rotten meat can get you high” *Salmonella* and Im the one without a brain..

FWIW Lactic acid doesn't make your muscles sore. Lactic acid in your body is produced in a mechanism which LOWERs acidity in your blood and happens due to this high acidity which in turn is a result of anaerobic respiration. The lactic acid acts as a pH buffer to keep your blood from protonating your body.
