Carne robada o ilegal: ¿Qué te puede pasar si la comes?

The theft of 14 goats from a farmer has raised alarms: where does that meat end up? What happens if it reaches your table without going through a slaughterhouse or veterinary controls? In this interview on the program "Ponte al Día" on Televisión Canaria (January 29, 2026), Blanca Puértolas López, a biologist specializing in food safety and dean of COBCAN, warns of the serious dangers of consuming products of unknown origin (meat or cheese). Critical points are analyzed: The invisible danger: zoonoses (parasites), bacteria, and viruses that are not detectable with the naked eye. Serious consequences: from poisoning to irreversible neurological damage or death. How to protect yourself: keys to identifying traceability in supermarkets and restaurants. The myth of "homemade": why rejecting offers from individuals ("I have a friend's goat") is vital for your health. Food safety is not a whim; it is the barrier between food and poison.
