This is why we "cure" meat.

Here is a short video clip called the "Micro Empire" of some of the microorganisms we sausagemakers battle with nitrates and nitrites. Brilliant photography with a powerful Cannon camera. These microorganisms are so small, millions swim in a single drop of water!

Wash yer' hands sausage makers! :shock:

Best Wishes,
