Did you know a bite from a lone star tick can give you a life long allergy to red meat ?

Oh. I thought this thread was about spoopy seasonal food. The thumbnail made me think that it was a chocolate creme donut made to look like a spider.

My wife got bitten by one this summer. No allergies as of yet. Scary thing.

Thankfully, red meat allergy is far more rare (no pun intended) than lyme disease.

Still scary as fuck though.
