Good old t. Solium. Just make sure your food is thoroughly cooked and you'll be ok. There is actually a high number of parasites out there

Or (more importantly) if you don’t properly cook pork

if bacteria are not a concern, you can freeze it to get rid of parasites

True, but either way once correctly cooked they are also dead

Some people don’t know how to cook pork correctly.... that’s like saying you like your chicken a little rare...
