RE: TODAY in STUPID - Woman prosecuted for selling $12 of food on Facebook
That's a tough one, but where I live in the Philippines people eat a lot of ceviche, and many people end up with tapeworms because of it. I eat it too, but sparingly. So there really is a danger, but this lady should only get a little slap on the wrist, imo.
Yes that risk does exist but it is up to the people eating it. There are risks that are similar with eating smoked salmon, sushi, sashimi, steak tartare. The reason the woman is being prosecuted is not because of this, it is because of not having the right permits. I don't think that is a criminal act. Also if I choose to eat a risky food like for example something which is raw I think there is some responsibility on me for that too.
