in a lot of places ppl will never ever touch rare meat. its disgusting to them, unsanitary. my wife loves sushi but refuses to eat rare fish. she says to her its like eating litteral sh/t. conditioning from where she was raised. (she eats the rice n cucumber rolls haha)
we cook salmon so thoroughly it makes fried chicken look raw :'). God bless spices!
Id never recommend eating raw meat. I worked at a distribution butchery for super markets in a country that arguably has one of the cleanest and strictest pipelines for such stuff and i'll tell u. its just people packing ur stuff.. its incredibly easy for a chain of events to happen to get properly sourced meat infected with pretty much anyhting. many opportunities along the route from slaughter to packaging etc.
its not gross or badly managed, just how it is with humans handling things, heat needed during the process, many transports and different handoffs during production process.
so yeah, cook it n cook it good is all i can say. dont trust some sticker on a package to tell u its safer than somethin else
“Rare” fish is always a bad idea, but perhaps you meant “raw”, which is different.
Raw fish like used in sushi/sashimi is generally safe because the fish is flash frozen, which is as effective as thorough cooking for killing parasites.
I (an American -- don't blame me, I voted for Harris) traveled to New Brunswick a few years ago. Went to a pub in St. Johns and ordered a burger, medium rare. The waitress informed me that they can't do that. By law, for public health reasons, ground meet served by restaurants must be cooked at a temperature that rules out even medium rare.
Did Harris propose something relevant in Canadian meat cooking practices? I’m confused how who you voted for has any relevance to meat practices.
More relevant, does that mean steak tartar is illegal in Canada? A person willing to buy uncooked ground beef is not allowed to buy it from someone willing to serve it?
That’s the case in many countries. Rare ground beef is a very different proposition to a rare steak. The reason that a lump of rare beef is safe(ish) is that bacteria are not good at migrating into the muscle tissue; if there’s something undesirable present it will likely be on the surface and is destroyed by cooking. But once you make ground beef, all bets are off; if there was, say, E. coli present on the surface, it’s all over the place now.
