    There’s a kind of tick that, once it bites you, causes you to be deathly allergic to red meat from that point forward.

      Not always! Last I heard, it can and does wear off. Might take 6-months, might take years. I gather the effect is so rare we don’t have a ton of data.

      But I’m often full of shit! Look it up yourself.

        You are probably full of shit every day. Until you visit the loo. So don’t hold it against yourself!
