What's so gross about a worm? Well, when it's inside your guts, the worm can become a bit of a problem. According to the
Nature Wants to Eat You tumblr:
The pork tapeworm (Taenia solium) doesn’t really have any
jaws, or a mouth. Cool. It only latches onto your guts with the grappling hooks
on its face. No biggie. And it can grow to several metres in length.
Humans can become infected by the tapeworm after eating
undercooked pork. Most have no symptoms. Yay! Some get seizures, blindness, and
a mild case of death. Boo!
