DESCRIPTION: The consumption of cat and dog meat may be playing a role in "massive human rabies epidemics" in Asia. (Some people may find some of the concepts and images in this video disturbing) Cross-contamination of foodborne pathogens during meat preparation is an issue regardless of the species. See, for example, Food Poisoning Bacteria Cross-Contamination (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-poisoning-bacteria-cross-contamination/) and Unsafe at Any Feed (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/unsafe-at-any-feed/). For a cheerier video, Are Cats or Dogs More Protective For Children's Health? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/are-cats-or-dogs-more-protective-for-childrens-health/) is queued up next, featuring our 13-year-old Lilly!
 
More on brains eating at Avoiding Cholesterol Is a No Brainer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/avoiding-cholesterol-is-a-no-brainer/) and Mad Fish Disease (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/mad-fish-disease/).
