Common in Africa Asia and Latin america adult Taenia solium tapeworms can live inside the human intestinal tract producing eggs that its human host then expels fecally.
As an eye-opening feature in Discover describes the eggs can get swept up by pigs as the animals forage for food.
and make their way into its bloodstream eventually arriving at its muscles where it will likely be eaten by a human in say a pork taco.
Someone contaminates food with tapeworm eggs bound for a pig's stomach. The tapeworm eggs hatch but instead of developing into an adult tapeworm in the intestines they burrow into the bloodstream as would normally occur in a pig.
In a human they often end up in the brain forming cysts that cause a disease called neurocysticercosis.
In comparison a brain-eating-zombie attack doesn't seem that bad. Probably the most frightening is the M. Bop more commonly known as Hanson's Ear Worm.

#What Eating Crickets Is Really Like The Future Food Salon describes itself as a celebration of food in an arts-soaked setting that explores with enthusiasm what we will be eating in the future.
But it would be perhaps more descriptive to say the Future Food Salon is like a book reading at
the bartender was pouring like completely full-to-the-brim glasses of wine possibly to counter any trepidation the guests had about eating toffee that was covered intentionally with bugs.
The hosts were a mixture of Future Food Salon people (enthusiastic Torontonians) and do-gooders interested in promoting sustainable bug-eating (mostly from Austin Texas)
The eating of insects as food is called sort of clinically and unappetizingly entomophagy. It's not unusual outside of North american and Western europe;
in Mexico for instance chapulines or grasshoppers are a favorite bar snack and taco filling. But here eating bugs is limited pretty much to reality TV SHOWS.
That could change as we're looking at a near-inevitable food crisis brought on by factory farming.
Factory farm animals like cows pigs and chickens consume massive amounts of grain water and land and require the deforestation of huge swathes of the planet.
A 2009 study estimated that factory livestock is responsible for 50 percent of the world's man-made greenhouse gases.
and others have been looking to alternatives from lab-grown meat to well bugs. Entomophagy has a lot going for it.
so they're a good replacement for mammal or bird meat. They eat less food reduce our need for pesticides
(because um that would kind of defeat the point) and contribute minimal greenhouse gases. Many types of insects (like mealworms) don't even require water
since they get enough from their food. Insects are also easy to raise at home and don't take up much space.
At the Future Food Salon I was shown a mockup of an in-house cricket enclosure designed to be placed on your counter next to your microwave
Click through to the gallery for a seven-item hors d'oeuvres spin through the wonders of bug-eating.
As a vegetarian I'm very interested in entomophagy as odd as it sounds. I make no illusions of the massive amounts of insects that must be killed
I consume (which would likely be proportionally higher than a non-vegetarian).**as an aside:
insect mortality for vegetarians would make an interesting study) Of course the leading reservations that I have when it comes to the consumption of animal meat is the suffering of the animal
when being raised the method in which the animal is killed and the intelligence of the animal.
Do you have any information on how these insects are typically transitioned from living creature to food?
and both enjoy the benefits of eating meat bug and the health aspects (hype) of the marijuana in the animal.
Seanlumly I attended the meetings was one of the speakers during the morning session on entomophagy as well as consumed crickets during the Future Food Salon tasting.
Local restaurants and chefs (including myself) prepare dishes utilizing various insects. We have done dishes like chirps
and salsa (toasted cricket corn flour) and a cricket moon pie with mill worm filling.
I make a point to run the dish at my restaurant during the week before the event.
I think most guest are going more for the shock value until they taste the dish.
By far crickets have been the favorite bug of choice. As a chef I am willing to try any thing at least once.
They taste like toasted pistachios. Hopefully people will realize that a shrimp isn't any thing more than a sea roach
and will not scoff at a plate of land crawling snacks. Together with Elke Grenzer of the Culture of Cities Centre I host the Future Food Salons.
I am the founder of Alimentary Initiatives. Our first Salon in this series was in Toronto with the second one described here in Manhattan.
which makes tasty high protein bars from the crickets. Jakub Dzamba our featured speaker for the series is also working on cricket reactors (farms) that can sit on your kitchen counter.

#The Science Of Alcohol Aging SPONSORED ARTICLE The complete science of barrel-aging whisky is something we have only recently come to understand.
what happens when the Glenfiddich distillery men lay the base spirit to rest in oak casks and store it in one of our 46 warehouses.
Our Malt Master Brian Kinsman told me that every new cask of spirit has the same opportunity of becoming a 12-year-old Scotch as it does of becoming one of the extremely rare casks that make up our incredible 50
but it is important to remember that each different wood gives its own unique characteristics to the whisky.
For example Q. alba produces vanilla flavors (fruity sweet) while Q. robur yields a rich tannic kick.
At the Glenfiddich distillery we take the base spirit which comes off the still at 65.6%ABV
The wood casks perform three important functions to the aging of the whisky:''subtractive''additive'and'interactive.'
'The relationship between the liquid and the wood is one of the many intriguing aspects of whisky.
After all that mysterious and storied past is part of the allure of Scotch whisky! by Mitch Bechard Glenfiddich Ambassador To learn more about the fascinating world of single malts visitglenfiddich.
Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch whisky is registered a trademark of William Grant & Sons Ltd. Every new cask of spirit has the same opportunity of becoming a 12-year-old Scotch as it does of becoming one of the extremely rare casks that make up our incredible 50 Year Old.
Brian Kinsmanglenfiddich Malt Masterthree MODES OF CASK AGINGSUBTRACTIVE: Wood casks remove impurities within the whisky.
The inside of American oak barrels is charred usually. Charcoal with its billions of tiny pores is a great purifier.
Wood gives flavor and character to the whisky. Oak wood contains hemicellulose lignin and tannins.
These elements cultivate chemical reactions with the base spirit adding aromatic molecules to produce flavors such as coconut vanilla and fruit.
Wood also varies the color of the whisky. We find that Scotch whisky matured in European wood will have a darker more reddish hue to it than that
which has spent most of its life in American wood. INTERACTIVE: Wood is semi-porous meaning that the cask is always breathing
As we age the whisky the alcohol content of the liquid drops. We must be mindful of this as spirit below 40%ABV can no longer legally be called Scotch whisky.
So is the white oak whiskey sold under a different label than the european oak whiskey?
Does the base spirit itself have any flavour that differentiates it from say the base spirit used for vodka or gin?
Oh I forgot but if is there an opening for an Angel in your distillery please do not hesitate to contact me.

#Coconut Husks Make for A Stronger, Lighter Paddleboardwhile biking near his home in Thailand Paolo Cechetti noticed a man weaving raw coconut-husk fibers into bags.
Cechetti an engineer at the water-sports-equipment manufacturer Cobra International is always hunting for techniques to make surfboards stronger and lighter.
Typically that translates into a spin on a carbon-fiber-based core but Cechetti decided to try using coconut fiber instead.
The new Coco Mat core which is used now in boards from Australian brand NSP is stronger than carbon fiber and more sustainable.

GMO-eating females developed more mammary tumors as well as pituitary gland and hormonal abnormalities. GMO-eating males developed significantly more cases of liver damage liver failure
and severe kidney malfunctions. 4. Profit Pro a crop analysis and management company recently released a report that showed staggering nutritional deficiencies in GMO corn

It hovers lowers and then repositions a pair of syringes over six petri dishes. In short rapid-fire bursts they extrude the milky paste.
Soon three little hexagons form in each dish. After a few minutes the hexagons grow to honeycomb structures the size of fingernails.
The honeycombs are human livers says Sharon Presnell chief technology officer of Organovo or at least the foundations of them.
The tiny masterpieces of biomedical engineering are nearly identical to tissue samples from real human livers
toys wristwatches airplane parts food. Now scientists are working to apply similar 3-DâÂ#Ârinting technology to the field of medicine accelerating an equally dramatic change.
But it's much different and much easier to print with plastic metal or chocolate than to print with living cells.
So as mechanical engineers began to build early 3-D printers tissue engineers tried growing replacement organs in a lab. They started by pipetting cells into petri dishes by hand.
An organ requires networks of blood vessels to distribute nutrients and oxygen. Without this core function cells will wither and die.
According to the Food and Drug Administration liver toxicity is the most common reason for a drug to be pulled from clinical trials as well as from the marketplace after it's been approved.
There's still no reliable way to evaluate how a drug will affect the human liver before it's ingested not even animal trials.
At Stanford researchers have tried to get around this problem by breeding mice with livers made up mostly of human cells.
Scientists at MIT have built miniature liver models using micropatterning the same soft lithography technique used to put copper wires onto computer chips.
Next year Organovo will begin selling its liver assay a petri-dish-like well plate containing liver cells arranged in a 3-D structure 200 to 500 microns thick (two to five times as thick as a human hair.
