Re: Foraging and Tapeworm: risky?

This "Fuchsbandwurm" is indeed a deadly parasite and not the same as the intestinal tapeworm as mentioned before.
It is more akin to a liver fluke.
Washing is the only way to get rid of the eggs in the faeces (on leaves) - cooking apparently does not harm them!??!
