Be aware that some laab in Northern Thailand may consist of raw pork, offal, and pork blood – so if you can’t stomach raw pork and blood, stick with the cooked option.

If you can't stomach.... raw pork could contain Taenia soleum which turns your brain into a Swiss cheese.

I ate with a village in Isaan and was warned about the "goy" (which is like raw Laab) after a woman pointed at her mother and father who were both blind. She told me it was "goy" that caused it.

Not to mention, northern food mix with bile. That is next level beyond me.

The funny thing is, bile is actually quite safe to eat. It's...shocking. But it's quite safe.

It's raw blood and raw meat that are actually much more dangerous. At least bile is highly acidic and will kill most pathogens. It's probably why it was chosen as an ingredient to the dishes it's usually added to...
