here is the link to the info I found:http://www.deltawaterfowl.org/research/AAB/005-ricebreast.php Apparently, the cysts become “invisible” during cooking, and health officials tell us that ingesting cooked Sarcocystosis cysts (cooking and eating ricebreast ducks) does not pose a health hazard. However, Sarcocystosis infections are one of the most conspicuous parasitic conditions of wild ducks, and infected ducks are definitely not appealing, and most are understandingly discarded by hunters.

Personally I don't find ricebreast nearly as nasty as those little waterfowl lice that crawl up your arm and you can't squish em with your fingers.
Just cook em for an extra 5 minutes and you will be fine......
So people who pluck their birds never even see it. Thats kinda scary. what if you roast a whole duck with the skin on it and cook it rare... probably eatin parasites
Use him as crab bait next summer..
