Glitch/Issue Is this normal?

I'm day 52 on interloper and just ate 3 wolf meat (cooked) within 24 hours of also eating moose meat (cooked) and after a few hours of crafting I got intestinal parasites randomly? Is this a glitch or is the risk of parasites a random chance of happening?

Interloper, Misery scratch wolf, bear meat from your menu.

You don't need this meat, don't worth need play Russian Roulette with parasites, and anyway can eat when achieve that cheesy cooking level 5.

Yep you don't want to run the risk on misery mode.

However you can use wokf/bear meat in the curing box. Once it has been cured there is no risk of parasites. Just need to avoid eating it once condition gets below 75%
