Did you partake of a cannibal sandwich during Christmas?
For those not in the know, cannibal sandwiches (or, to some, tiger meat sandwiches) are a Wisconsin tradition that goes back long before Jeffrey Dahmer. So simple to make. Just a slice of rye bread topped with fresh RAW beef, chopped or sliced onion and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
To some, it’s an adventurous gastronomic adventure inspired by the states’ Germanic roots. To others, it’s E. coli on a plate.
That’s why, once again this year, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services issued warnings concerning the dangers of eating raw beef. Spoil sports!
However, here are some…
FOODS JUST AS DANGEROUS TO EAT AS A CANNIBAL SANDWICH
A BLT: Bacon, lettuce and trichinosis sandwich.
A SlimJim…that was stored in a carny’s butt hole.
Cotton candy made with hobo pubes.
Any turkey “cooked” by leaving it in an overflowing Porta John in 103° weather on the last day of Rockfest.
Bread baked with yeast from a hooker’s infected squatch.
Raw pork slathered with Miracle Whip and left on the front seat of a PT cruiser in the Lambeau parking lot for five days in August.
Aunt Martha’s famous tape worm casserole.
Pretty much anything on a cruise ship buffet.
