Triconosis isn't a problem because people cook pork longer now and don't eat it rare. Thats the only reason. I know enough farmers, let me assure you its still a concern. What do you condider a reliable source? You're reliable source may not be as reliable as you think. I have a friend in another group thats dog just died from feeding raw. He thought he has a relieable source too.
