Don't forget trichinosis.

Not long ago, there was the story of a group who cooked and ate black bear meat while they were on a hunt. They all got sick from it. Cooking meat at high temperatures to kill parasites...we are still eating parasites! I guess at that point they are just more protein to be digested.

I hear occasionally of different types of parasites found in things like grouper fish here in Florida...not sure if restaurants cut them out or what the risks are if they are eaten after cooking. Pretty sure some of the fishermen on here have information about that.
