I've been eating and enjoying raw chicken for several years. I get free
range, no antibiotics etc. I suppose people who eat SAD might get sick
if they tried it, but that would be a detox probably. I can't promise
anyone they won't get a bacteria or parasite from any food if your body
is still toxic or even if its not. I may have ingested bacteria and
parasites from time to time, but I'm willing to take the risk for better
health and raw chicken doesn't make me sick, as long as it tastes
delicious. I have no trouble digesting raw animal food, and I chew it
well so the enzymes in the meat start digesting it in my mouth.

Chicken is delicious, especially the breast meat near the bone. The
first time I tried it, it was a psychological situation for me. What I
did was to cut it up like Sashimi in the kitchen, put it on a pretty
plate on my dining room table, turn the lights low, and delicately pick
up each piece with a fork. Now I pick up the whole piece with my fingers
and chew away just like my cat eats. What I don't do is eat it when
anyone else is around. But after all, as a child I ate drumbstick that
way.
