WUT?! Man Excretes 20-Foot Tapeworm After Consuming Raw Beef

One man is making headlines this week after the discovery of
a 20-foot tapeworm inside him.

According to the Daily
Mail, “Humans can catch them by touching contaminated stools and then
touching their mouths, by swallowing food or water that contains traces of
contaminated feces or by eating undercooked, contaminated pork, beef or fish.

It should come as no surprise that the man revealed he liked
eating raw beef or that upon analysis the parasite was identified as a beef
tapeworm.

But these aren’t the first vomit-worthy repercussions of
eating meat.

Just a few years ago, a 63-year-old South Korean woman got
quite a shock when a medical examination confirmed a semicooked dead squid had inseminated
her mouth.

While such revolting episodes are enough to scare some people
off of meat, the reality of factory farming is truly terrifying.

Mercy For Animals investigations at factory farms across the
country have uncovered a culture of extreme cruelty and neglect. Animals are
subjected to intensive confinement, agonizing mutilations without painkillers,
and a brutal slaughter.

The best way to ensure that animals are not tortured to become food is simply
to leave them off the menu. To learn more about transitioning to a veg diet, click here.
