Except people get frustrated and tired of me when I ask for help :(

Oh fuck I forgot about the conference! I’m late!

I mean, this isn’t a scientific research lab or anything. It’s a casual conversational community lol.

Well I have no idea if it is dangerous or not. I’d have to investigate further.

Even if technically fleas may have spread the disease, they were still located on and being carried by the rats. Hantavirus is a huge dangerous one that rats can spread. There are others too as well as parasitic infections.

Same bacteria produce toxins and even after cooking it, the bacteria are destroyed, but the toxins remain. But it depends on the type of bacteria. It’s how some types of food poisoning works.

But yeah if all of these still mean that rats are safe to eat when cooked thoroughly, I’m on board. I just don’t know enough about cooked rats and quite frankly I don’t feel like investigating more since there is no one selling cooked rats by me lol.

It’s not the odd animal that bothers me. It’s just that I know rats are huge carriers of serious diseases while living that I’m not sure if they’d still be dangerous to eat after cooking.

This is an absolutely gorgeous view! I hope you do your fair share of gazing off into the horizon with a hot cup of coffee/hot chocolate/beverage of your choice!
