This question is about the walking dead:?
Ok, so in the last episode Bob was revealed to have been bitten and Gareth and crew were eating him. When they found out they all spit out the meat as if they would get sick but how does that work it doesn't make sense. It has already been said that everyone is infected and will turn when they die. If that is true everyone they have ate before would have made them sick because they were infected. I think they screwed up in the story telling somewhere because it doesn't add up. What do you guys think?
Yeah I get what you are saying but that doesn't answer the question? Terminus has been around awhile so how were those asses still alive to even meet Rick and company? They should have ALL been infected from the first time they ate ANYONE...Right?

Everyone is infected.. yes that's true.. Rick came to know about it from Jenner at CDC in season 1 and then he told the group about it at the season 2 finale.. So other people don't know about this that would include Gareth's group.. However there is one thing that Gareth and his group would know is that a bite from a walker causes a person to get sick and then soon after that dies, so they spit it out soon after the learnt Bob was bitten fearing the sickness could be transferred to them.

It could be that the Terminans have never fatally injured someone and had them turn. But I think that's unlikely given the time they've been there. Consider their method for killing (blow to the head and slicing open the neck) and Mary's request of Carol to shoot her in the head.
It may be that there are different levels of infection. While living, the infection is dormant, but if allowed to turn (or if bitten) the infection is virulent and can be passed on through biting.

No he was bit he told Gareth after they ate his leg. He yelled I've been bit you idiot I'm tainted meat. That is why he was crying though. He also died at the end of the episode from the bite? Did you miss the episode lol

I think they were afraid that since he was bit they would automatically get sick with the fever and die/turn. Everyone is infected, BUT it takes sickness/being killed without killing the brain/ or being scratched/bitten to turn. I think they spit it out because they were afraid they would automatically start fevering, die, and turn.

the people in terminus don't know that everyone is infected. plus eating a walker isn't a great idea.

I think that the folks from Terminus never made it to the CDC like Rick and company did, so they don't know that the virus or whatever is already in them.
