NOTE:
..incase nobody has noticed, so far its almost always the 'raw' stuff involved that seems to make people sick the most often as well as the 'raw' stuff in pet food. There's other botulisms, poisonings, and food items that make people sick but in many cases the uncooked 'raw' items seem to be the most liable items to cause problems!

At least it seems to me that certain raw food poses significant health risks to both pets and humans due to potential contamination with harmful bacteria like Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli.

Even though lots of people have done it, I know I was always told as a kid that it's not very smart to eat raw eggs or even a hot dog without cooking it first.
