One common parasite that can cause foodborne illness is Toxoplasma gondii. This single-celled organism is often transmitted through undercooked or contaminated meat, as well as fruits and vegetables contaminated with oocysts from cat feces. Infection can lead to flu-like symptoms, but it can be particularly severe for pregnant women and individuals with weakened immune systems. Proper cooking and hygiene practices can help prevent toxoplasmosis.
