The meat industry is corporate owned and motivated. Their goal is to realize a profit. They could care less what contaminates their product. Raw is just plain GROSS! I eat very little meat myself, and would never, ever feed uncooked food to my beloved Chi-Babies. I don't use kibble, either. I use boiled rice. My vet advocates chicken and rice, or lamb and rice as the safest foods for dogs AND cats! The best rule to follow is this; If you can't eat it, don't feed it to your dogs (or cats). Raw pork can kill a human. It can also kill your dogs. What in God's name are you thinking! ALL raw meat contains contaminents. The only way to protect your dogs and yourself is to cook it thoroughly.   Gloria   "Oh, no! Elastigirl! You married Elastigirl?...Then GOT BUSY! This is tooooo good!"
