Foods you should never eat raw
Eggs: -Eating raw eggs can make you really sick. This is because they may be contaminated with salmonella bacteria.
Lima beans: -These legumes contain a compound called linamarin, which turns into cyanide.
Elderberries: -Not every edible berry should be consumed raw. This is the case of elderberries, which should be boiled before consumption.
Eggplant: -Like potatoes, eggplant also contains solanine, which is a glycoalkaloid poison.
Chicken, pork, and beef: -Poultry, pork, and ground beef in particular should always be safely cooked, otherwise.
Cassava: -Similar to lima beans, raw cassava also contains unsafe levels of cyanide.
Red kidney beans: -Eating just four or five of these raw can really hurt you. Red kidney beans contain lectins.
Wild mushrooms: -While most mushrooms you will find in the supermarket are safe to eat raw, it's not advisable to eat wild mushrooms without cooking them.
Rhubarb leaves: -There's a reason why we eat the stalks and not the leaves. Rhubarb leaves contain oxalic acid, which makes then toxic, so always discard them.
Potatoes: -Stick to cooked potatoes. These starchy things contain toxic compounds called glycoalkaloids that can mess up your digestive system.
