Why might your appendix burst?

[Poncho]

I have always had a fear of my appendix rupturing. Even back when I believed it had no known use. Now that I hear that its the organ we use to digest raw meat, and we need to eat raw meat to thrive, I fear it even more. I dont have full access to raw meat where I am right now, so I have not truly started eating it. I have a ridiculous fear of my appendix bursting before I get to start raw meat haha. Why do they burst? Seems ridiculous. And why do the doctors remove them?

In my experience the colon is just clogged up and backs up foul garbage up to the appendix.
Colon cleansers get rid of this garbage in a few hours.
Eliminating / cancelling any doctor surgery.

Appendixes saved.
