Best Answer

Whether the flesh of an animal can be consumed without causing illness hinges on a number of factors. Obviously, we can eat freshly dead, properly preserved or frozen meat. Understand that historically many of the sauces and spices used in cooking were designed to cover the taste of meat that had "turned" since there was no refrigeration. In many countries people consume meat that is fly blown or old even if it isn't thoroughly cooked with little or no ill effects.

How meat is consumed and in what condition it is when eaten is often based

on culture or on need.

I know what you mean but some people in Europe eat rats because it is a tradition, just like we eat turkey and ham.

Well would you rather have a bunch of dead animals lying around everywhere! It helps clean up and plus why would you eat live animals.
