Please Don't Eat or Serve "Tiger Meat"

Raw beef and egg

During the holiday season, there are many unique holiday dishes that are steeped in tradition. None is more unsafe than the dish �tiger meat,� or �cannibal sandwich.� This dish, popular in the Midwest at Christmas and New Year�s Eve parties, is a mixture of raw ground beef and raw eggs seasoned with spices and onions. The �tiger meat� presentation of this dish is served alongside crackers while the �cannibal sandwich� is served on rye bread.

 

No matter the way it is served, �tiger meat� should not be on the menu this holiday season. Eating raw or undercooked ground beef and eggs poses a health risk to healthy individuals and an even greater health risk for individuals with reduced immune systems.
