one famous incident is a boy ate some sand/dirt that had raccoon roundworms in it. balisyascaris is probably the most lethal roundworm out there. the house episode was based on it. since it also is lethal to other species too, besides the raccoon itself.
But did they have food allergies? Because there’s a theory that increases in good allergies are because we live sufficiently sanitary lives that some people’s immune systems basic go on a schizophrenic rampage whether somebody certain foods.
Hopeful they did it far from outhouses.
Dirt is loaded with parasites even today, in countries with poor sanitation.
That’s what the cooking is for I imagine

So you’re telling me these dirt eaters have really strong immune systems
That which doesn’t kill you can always main you horribly or infect you for life.
