I ate this at a restaurant for the first time a few days ago and now have food poisoning. It was a well respected restaurant in London. I did actually think it tasted much nicer than I’d expected and if I was not feeling so terrible now I think I’d probably eat it again.

Have tried this in the past and if memory served I definatly liked it. I’m from the US and like a previous poster said, Tiger Meat is common in the northern midwest where there is a concentration of german ancestory. I grew up with tiger meat and enoy it on soda crackers with some creamy horseraddish sauce. As for uncooked meat, people have been eating it for ages, as long as it is processed in a sanitary way and the beef is raised in a good environment your chances of caching a parasite or disease is low, but it is a chance. Then again everything we do has risks, this is a minor one.

My brother ate this yesterday and fell ill immidiately and was rushed to the ER. This is a highly dangerous meal. And for the record my brother is very healthy and fit and works out 4 times a week.

Do people not know that almost all eggs you can buy in a commercial market these days are pasteurized? You’ll be fine. YUM

I LOVE all these comments that bring up rare diseases like CJD and MAD COW and a tape worm from Africa. You might as well say, “Never go out of the house because you might catch AIDS.”

I have been eating raw meats for more than 30 years and have never had so much as the trots. If you have never eaten meat that way, yes, it can make you bloated or give you the winds or even the trots. SO those are the people who should watch out!

RAW MEAT IS AWESOME!!!! Cooked meat has lots of carcinogens, which cause cancer! How ’bout that!!

Perfumes are the only commodity that requires complete hard work and patience. Every perfume is made having its own uniqueness. I own a blog and write posts on the history and the making of perfumes
