Dangerous food

[mount_oregano]

According to a study by the Medical College of Malaga, Spain, each year about 57,000 accidents take place while cutting Spain’s famous jamón, dry-cured whole-leg ham.

I usually buy mine pre-cut by experts to assure both quality and personal safety.

The pig's been dead for months, I'm afraid. But it led a happy life.
