Yup.

>>11766938
nope.

>>11766938
Yes, as long as you don't eat it.

depends if you consider worms, parasites, salmonella, and food poisoning to be safe

All the Chinese or Thai places around me sere it well done. All the French places serve medium rare. I don't know what to do

>>11766938
I did mine to 55C for Christmas, not dead yet.

>>11766938
anything but well done is absolutely disgusting and probably crawling with bacteria and parasites, not to mention it also tastes like SHIT

>>11767062
Food standards being higher means it's safer at less than well done, but in China or Thailand that's probably not the case which carried over even if they move to another country. Even pork is safe to eat at medium temperatures because of better sanitation and farming practices. It just depends on the source.

How well do you trust the source of your meat?

>>11767062
The chinese places cook them whole right? Whereas a french style bistro will do breasts individually to med rare, and confit the legs to well done.

It's safe to eat the legs med rare, but they're full of connective tissue and stuff and so they're tough and kinda nasty like that. So if you do a whole duck it HAS to be well done. French will do a whole duck well done also.

Last time I had duck was on a flight. It was cold but lovely.

Depends on the country. Western countries generally have high standards for food safety so you can probably eat even chicken medium rare. In the developing world you probably want to cook the food until the inside is as dark as the population.

Non western countries are mostly Muslim so while you're correct that it isn't safe to eat there, it's got nothing to do with food poisoning.

what does duck fat taste like ?
I can't tell, it tastes very neutral, does it have a flavor ?

>>11767477
Not neutral. I can't describe the taste well, but it's great. It's amazing for roasting potatoes and owe it to yourself to try it.

>>11767486
Oh I have seen the duck fat light, it's amazing!

Just can't tell what it taste like, maybe I've just fucked up my sense of taste

>>11767486
it's overrated and you're overrated, duck is overrated

>>11767546
fake and gay

>>11767313
Oh yeah, Peking duck and roasted duck at those places is cooked whole.

>not eating raw

>not eating just the neck

ground meat is more inheritantly risky to eat mid rare than something like a steak, but either should be fine.
