What is toxoplasmosis?
Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, which is endemic in cats. It is usually caught in the process of cleaning litter boxes. While it can have an effect on adult humans, the effects on unborn children can be much greater, which is why doctors recommend that pregnant women not handle cat litter. The organism that causes the disease is of interest to science because it affects the brains of rats and mice in ways that seem designed to increase the spread of the disease.
How does toxoplasma gondii affect food?
Toxoplasma is a micro organism that lives in cats. It has an intricate life cycle [see for instance in the Wikipedia]. It is excreted by the cat with it's feces. So that is the way it comes into your garden and comes in touch with plants or fruits you eat. When you suspect a young cat has been digging in your garden [between the strawberries, or between the lettuce!] you should make sure you cook the fruit or vegetables. So in fact it does not affect the food in itself.
