You Should Never Eat These Menu Items

Raw Sprouts

Raw sprouts add an extra crunch to your meal but is it worth the health risk? Adding raw sprouts to your dish is very popular amongst vegans and in Asian style dishes. Sprouts grow in warm temperatures, and this can lead to all kinds of bacterias to breed as well. Harmful bacterias such as listeria and salmonella thrive in warm environments. This puts you at risk for foodborne illness. Cooked sprouts have many health benefits, but when they are raw, they tend to do more bad than good. Some restaurants have removed this item from their menus.
