IMO No when handled correctly & the meat is thoroughly cooked there's no side effects. Hand washing is essential in handling meat it's common sense to me.

When grasses were King.

I say yes banish all meat and poultry. Todays factory farms are filthy disgusting brutal environments for animals and definetly not healthy eating for anyone. Full of antibiotics, arsenic (ever feel sick after eating chicken?) Animal feces. not fit for the dead!

I have been flexitarian since May, 1992.

We know it takes forty times the fossil fuel to produce a pound of protein from feedlot beef as from soybean. Eating vegetarian saves enormous amount of petroleum.

What is the answer? Eat meat sparingly, share with those less fortunate than yourself.

Yes, animals are raised in barbaric conditions. We passed Prop. 2 in CA, now we are working nation-wide. Go to Farm Sanctuary if you want to help us.
