00:008 years old, consumed dog meat, ate in the street. Let's review the note.
00:10Last week, this news shocked the public opinion.
00:13A minor had a dog identification chip on her stomach.
00:18How did she get there?
00:20Counselor Michelle Tavilo, who made the complaint,
00:23assured that the girl and her mother had eaten a snack bought in the street, in the Meigs neighborhood.
00:31The little girl was taken to an assistance center because she began to feel bad
00:35and through an exam they detected the object.
00:38The news made a great impression and makes us question what we eat in the street
00:43and how safe these foods are.
00:47If before our concern was the state of mayonnaise or the risk of infections,
00:52this new scenario presents us with a new dilemma that includes the risk of eating someone's pet.
01:01Of course, this is a matter of ethical and emotional health,
01:04but what happens in the streets of our country with a street food that has proliferated
01:10and that of course is where the authority must be monitoring to prevent such situations from occurring?
01:15Our panel is joined by Rosa Ollarse, former health sermon of the metropolitan region.
01:20Thank you very much, Rosa, for being with us.
01:22I imagine that you too, like many others, are scandalized after knowing this news.
01:28Yes, good afternoon. Thank you very much for the invitation.
01:31The truth is that this is nothing new.
01:33This is something that has already been seen in other years
01:36and it is not unknown that it is promoted in the networks,
01:42even many times, more than promotion.
01:45It is reported that there is death, there is killing,
01:48there is slaughtering of animals such as the pets we have, which are cats and dogs.
01:55This has already happened in funds in the period of September 18
02:00and in other occasions also in previous years.
02:04Yes, you with the amount of inspections you carried out when you were a sermon,
02:09I imagine that you also encountered these situations,
02:11because of course, there must be even a supply chain here,
02:15beyond the person who sold the antifreeze.
02:18Indeed, there is a clandestine slaughtering,
02:24which is what the PDI has to discover,
02:28and that is why it is difficult to get to these places.
02:30They are usually for data, for information,
02:33but not only do we have the slaughtering of animals
02:37that are not authorized in our country by law,
02:41in this case these animals that are the pets,
02:45but there is also a clandestine slaughtering of other animals
02:48that come from the abbey, such as the vacuum,
02:52the pigs, which are animals raised in areas that are not suitable for the breeding of these animals
02:57and from which we can have diseases that can lead to death.
03:01And I want to get to that point,
03:03because when we talk about this type of consumption,
03:07it has an associated risk factor for the health of people.
03:11Indeed, there are multiple risk factors.
03:15Parasitic diseases, bacterial diseases and viruses.
03:21Parasitic diseases are the most serious so far.
03:25In fact, the World Health Organization and the OAS
03:28are focusing mainly on hidatidosis,
03:33which is transmitted by the dog, which is a parasite
03:36that obviously circulates through the body
03:40and that obviously causes a disease called echinococcus
03:45or granulosa hidatidosis,
03:47which are bags of parasites inside the organs.
03:51Is that what could even lead to blindness?
03:53It could cause blindness.
03:55All parasites in general, such as tenias,
03:58in this case this is a tenia,
04:00there are also the tenias of the bovine,
04:03the saginata, the tenisol, there are many tenias,
04:07they are migratory, they migrate through different parts of the body,
04:11they enter the blood or lymphatic system
04:13and these circulate through the body and can reach the brain
04:17and obviously generate blindness or other types of serious diseases.
04:21And now, is the tenia the lumbar spine?
04:23Exactly, the lumbar spine is another tenia,
04:27which is that of the pig.
04:30That obviously causes a serious disease.
04:36Before, at some point it was sold to lose weight,
04:41at least there was information about it,
04:45but the truth is that all the tenias are migratory
04:51and they advance and go to different organs
04:54and generate tumors, they can even generate,
04:58well, generally they can generate death.
05:01And the other is trichinosis,
05:03which is also highly controlled
05:07and has a concern of the health authorities of the world,
05:13as well as diatridosis.
05:15This trichinosis is a disease transmitted in general by pigs,
05:19farmed in a clandestine way
05:21or that are not controlled by veterinarians
05:24or are not from controlled plantations.
05:26They are raised in a wild way, we could say,
05:30or in the countryside, in places that are not authorized.
05:33And the pig, as we all know, consumes mice.
05:37The rat transmits trichinosis and transmits other diseases.
05:42Of course, and that's what worries you the most, Jairo.
05:44Yes, I wanted to ask a question because
05:46many times people who eat on the street
05:48are people who don't have the money to go to a restaurant.
05:51And because it's very cheap.
05:53Because it's very cheap.
05:54So my question is very simple.
05:56Is there any food that I can eat on the street, for example?
05:59I imagine I've eaten French fries on the street.
06:02I've never had French fries.
06:04I've also eaten a sandwich with a little boat on the street.
06:06But is there any food that I can eat with my daughter and be calm?
06:09With tranquility.
06:10Well, there are the carts of the motel with bone,
06:13which are authorized,
06:14which have a cold chain and have water.
06:16The carts of the motel with bone,
06:18they always have running water,
06:21they have disposable material
06:23and they also have a cold chain.
06:25They are the ones that are authorized.
06:28The rest is not authorized,
06:30except that they have authorizations by the municipalities.
06:33There are also some that have lower risks,
06:36we could say, in quotation marks,
06:38as is the case of the sopaipilla on the street,
06:41which can be authorized in special carts in the municipalities.
06:44Why?
06:45Because the sopaipilla is cooked at a temperature
06:50around 200 degrees,
06:52that nothing is left alive,
06:54but the oils are oils that are recycled and are carcinogenic.
06:59So, at the end of the day,
07:01one has to choose
07:03what to consume on the street
07:05and what not to consume on the street.
07:07That is also important,
07:08complementing what Rosita says.
07:10First of all,
07:11the water that you always have at your disposal
07:14has to have,
07:15not only packaged,
07:17but it also has to be fresh.
07:19Secondly,
07:20how do I heat that oil with gas?
07:22And that gas is highly dangerous.
07:24I am heating oil that is also fuel.
07:27Therefore,
07:28the fact that in a cart,
07:29we saw in the Plaza de Armas de Santiago,
07:31people running with roast embers,
07:34of meat that is being roasted,
07:35plus the oil,
07:36all that situation,
07:37that in some places,
07:39many people accumulate,
07:41can produce serious accidents and incidents,
07:44which is not only a matter of health traceability,
07:46but it is also a matter of security,
07:48how am I accessing a food.
07:51And finally,
07:52you who buy on the street,
07:54notice that you do not have access to water.
07:56And when you eat the overpillite,
07:58then you suck your fingers,
07:59which is very rich,
08:00you are also feeding yourself
08:01with everything you have in your hands.
08:03Therefore,
08:04there is also a user issue.
08:05Yes, Rosa,
08:06when we talk about this consumption of
08:09pet meat,
08:11which is also protected by our legislation,
08:13there is also another issue,
08:15which is cruelty against those animals,
08:19which is also punished by law.
08:20But when a person goes to buy,
08:23and supposes that the meat is not chicken,
08:25it is not pork,
08:26it is not vacuum,
08:27do I easily realize
08:29if there is any characteristic of that meat
08:31that I can say,
08:32this seems to be wrong?
08:33Yes,
08:34well,
08:35you have to be well aware of the meat.
08:38Vacuum meats are red meats
08:40that one knows the color they have.
08:43But when it is roasted,
08:44they are practically all the same.
08:45And when you buy,
08:46everything that is roasted,
08:47you will not realize.
08:48The only difference
08:49is the cat meat.
08:51The cat is a more slimy meat,
08:54and that is the only difference
08:57that when you consume it,
08:58when you eat it,
08:59it has more cartilage,
09:02and that obviously makes it different.
09:05On the other hand,
09:06the other meats,
09:07it is difficult to realize.
09:09Horse meat, for example.
09:10Of course,
09:11now there is also one thing
09:12that is very important.
09:13The sausages
09:16that are added to these antiques,
09:18are also of dubious origin,
09:21because they are processed
09:23with all the remains
09:24that remain of these animals
09:25when they are being made.
09:26Therefore,
09:27everything that remains,
09:28leather, fat, cartilage,
09:30everything that remains
09:32goes to that sausage.
09:35Therefore,
09:36we have to have
09:37all those precautions.
09:39Rosa,
09:40but there is a topic,
09:41because we have seen
09:42that street food has proliferated
09:44in recent years.
09:45And the truth is
09:46that one wonders
09:47what happens to the authority?
09:49Who are authorized
09:50to sell this type of food?
09:52Or are they all illegal?
09:54In general,
09:55they are all illegal.
09:56Because those who are authorized
09:58to sell this type of food
10:00are these cars
10:01that have a sandwich in the way,
10:03like those that have water,
10:05they have a cold chain.
10:07They are, in general,
10:08these big cars.
10:09They have the conditions
10:11to sell products,
10:13prepared dishes.
10:14Are you talking about the big ones,
10:15like the food trucks?
10:16Yes, like the food trucks.
10:17Those that are now on the street
10:19are all illegal.
10:20Unless they have,
10:21it can be a cart that has water,
10:23that has a cold chain,
10:25but only with prepared sandwiches.
10:27But the cold chain
10:28has to be with electricity
10:30and basically
10:31they don't have that.
10:32Well,
10:33then the cold chain
10:35is not always with electricity.
10:37So,
10:38don't forget the motorbike
10:39with Guasillo,
10:40as it goes.
10:41So,
10:42it's also with ice.
10:43They keep
10:44large amounts of ice
10:45and keep a cold chain.
10:47But here,
10:48one of the solutions
10:50that is seen,
10:51that is visualized
10:52and that has been discussed
10:54on other occasions
10:55is that
10:56people
10:57count on these cars,
10:59they can have a mechanism
11:00to count on these cars
11:02that are standard
11:04and that all have
11:05the same conditions.
11:07A project was done
11:08many years ago
11:10and a number of cars
11:11were delivered
11:13to the people
11:14of the motorbike
11:15with Guasillo.
11:16This could also be,
11:17of course,
11:18it could also be
11:19for these people
11:21to have
11:22a work mechanism
11:24that is safe.
11:25Exactly.
11:26And this is what we definitely need.
