Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer.

Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.

I got to say it it is a big hoax, or the most resilient virus on the planet, if it can survive 15 long minutes in my frying pan. I that only the raw meat can infect people. Now even the frying pan is a last cause? There is anything left to eat?

..and the CDC would validate a hoax?
I'll trust them as the experts.

I got it now...pork liver sausage is like liver pate. It is not cooked rather just refrigerated. It was a little confusing as it not really a sausage as show on the picture. Yeah it comes in a form of sausage or in cans. Common food on parties, served on crackers. Something like this....

No pork liver sausage is a sausage made from the livers of pigs. No eyelids, scrotums or assholes ..just the pig liver ..(so glad I don't eat meat!) lol

I'm just glad it's not bacon. Bacon is a friend.

I really like the Salami . Hungarian "Pick" or "Hertz", some of the greatest salami i have ever eat comes from Canada from a 150 year old company. The Old Forest , Gypsy, Salami With Gelatin & Parmesan . Germans make the most excellent salamis too, like the square shaped salami, and it is available in most German delis. .

Now the funny part is i hate Gallo and most Italian brand salamis. I find them a way to greasy, and missing in flavor. Just not my thing.
