>why
because he printed that at home for reddit upboots

i dont think the form would hold up if it caused the person to become ill, but also because a lot of people freak out when they see pink ground beef, even though they'll specifically ask for temperatures where the burger will be pink.
>t. quit a huge tourist trap burger joint because management decided to make medium the default unless a customer asked otherwise, and would have anywhere from dozens to over a hundred burgers sent back every shift because "pink"

>>20109499
Because unless they're freshly grinding their meat in-house with proper precautions to prevent cross-contamination, for safety reasons they will cook it to medium-well or beyond.

If they WERE grinding their beef fresh to order (or at least fresh every shift), then they can afford to do rare burgers, but if they're buying pre-ground beef, or grinding it days before it'll get used, then they're doing the safe thing by cooking it to a higher internal temp.

Plus it doesn't say anything about raw/undercooked food, it is talking about the guest supplying food (like for their own catering I assume)

>>20109499
>uh, why?

American style litigation culture. Its more pervasive than the "nanny state" for inhibition one's freedoms.
We might get sued!

>>20109510
Nah I believe a hotel in Toronto, Canada would do this. Many Chinese probably sue at every opportunity.

The waiver doesn’t say what you claim it says.

>>20109552
Yet he managed to eat almost half of it before signing off? Yeah, seems legit. Fuck.

>>20109499
why are americans obsessed with eating raw meat

>>20109585
When the restaurant serves the papers that's probably enough to get them off the hook. Eating the burger is an implicit agreement.

>oh look, it's the daily reddit repost thread
Fuck off.

overreaction to being fed sloppa garbage HFCS pink slime and being told it's patriotism. the human body naturally craves texture and flavor but whiteoid culture rejects these things and treats them as an alien oriental negroid invasive species and greets them with intense hostility

due to poor education and books being mostly destined for the weekly Moms 4 Liberty book burning bonfire, they turn to youtube charlatans and rage fuel algorithms that tell them that they need to stop shampooing their hair and stop getting polio vaccines and don't use a toothbrush and don't wipe your ass because it's "gay", instead they should be a real self reliant cave man (rrawwr!) and gnaw on uncooked beef from the meat counter at walmart just like grugg the cave man did in that famous documentary, "the flintstones"

tl;dr america is literally a mental illness

If true, kudos. That Xerox’s into oblivion effect on the highlights is great.

Obsessed.

Americans think that ground meat retains the same attributes texture wise as a normal cut for some reason. A steak being a certain doneness matters. A ground meat patty does not. It is emulsified and blended to the point where you are not getting different flavors by cooking it less, certainly not to the degree you would in a steak

>>20109663
You thought this was a coherent post when you typed it, didn’t you?

>>20109499
>Canada
Called it before I opened the thread. Hamburger doneness is not a thing here. It's actually illegal to serve ground beef below 71c (unless the meat is directly from the source and ground in house) so I'm not sure what this waiver accomplishes.

>>20109666
Ground meat can only be cooked one way: well done. Everything else is raw. Americans are literally the only culture pretending that partially cooked meat is actually fully cooked. Cope.

>>20109677
Just reverse searched OP's image and it was taken by a retarded American redditor. Called that too.

>>20109684
So you'll eat a fresh copped steak for a cold totally raw steak tartare but you can't fathom freshly chopping a steak, forming a burger patty, searing the outside, and then eating it?


Obviously, if you're buying ground beef from the supermarket, or can't freshly grind your beef in a sanitary way, then you should cook your burger thoroughly, but if you DO have access to freshly ground beef, a medium rare burger is amazing and you're retarded for thinking otherwise.

>>20109692
>copped
chopped

>>20109684
my grandma lived to 89 eating raw beef mince since she was like 16

>>20109499
Most foodborne illness in the West is caused by the people cooking it. Beef is perhaps the most tightly regulated industry of them all. Your concern should be that the cook doesn't wash his hands, not that the meat is a little pink.

>>20109692
you've never actually had, let alone prepared, steak tartare. yes, it's very obvious to everyone else. the requirements are totally different. so sit down and listen.

a good hamburger is not 100% lean. preferences vary but objectively anything less than 10% fat is not a good burger. knowledgeable people often recommend 20% and they're not wrong.

good steak tartare is made with the leanest possible beef, zero fat. if you have fat in your tartare, it will be an unpleasant dining experience. so you don't.

the difference is that one is cooked, and one isn't. and when i say "cooked" I mean what the other anon said: cooked. not lukewarm and sort of browned on the outside, that is disgusting and only an obese amerilard who is trying too hard to sound like a tough guy would come up with abomination like that.

never post again.

What a supremely homosexual post I really hope your mom wrote it for you

how do you know it's reddit? you're not a tranny redditor are you, tranny faggot?

>>20109743
So if you take a ribeye or better yet, a rib roast, then cook it to rare, that's totally fine, a super fatty cut, cooked to rare or medium rare and that's amazing.

But that same cut, chopped into a fine grind and formed into a patty, then seared is suddenly disgusting?

Kill yourself, you clearly have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.
