The analysis detected disease-causing microbes, including some that are resistant to antibiotics, the researchers reported in scientific journal Communications Biology.
"Most of these products have no warning labels on them showing that the meat ingredients are not fully cooked, indicating that they could harbour live bacteria and potentially viruses and parasites that would make a family very sick," study leader Laura Goodman of Cornell University said in a statement on Sept 24.
