Redpill me on eating raw beef - is it really REALLY safe?

[Anonymous No.12731971]

>>12731962
definitly not ground beef

[Anonymous No.12731978]

OK never mind, found this https://www.livestrong.com/article/477906-can-eating-raw-beef-make-you-sick/

[Anonymous No.12731988]

Its risky simply because of the pathogens the meat has been exposed to during the processing and packaging process.

[Anonymous No.12732006]

Don't eat ground beef raw in large quantities. Raw hunks of steak are generally fine, but what monster does that without dipping it in raw egg yolk?

[Anonymous No.12732050]

Lemme put it this way: I have a fucked up immune system due to being on transplant meds (immunosuppressants). Been on these shits for 13 years now, eating not only raw beef but raw pork as well all the while and I ain't dead yet. So yeah: it's pretty fucking safe so long as you have access to high quality meat.

If you want to eat raw ground beef for some reason, then you either need an extremely trustworthy butcher who will grind the beef through a clean grinder or buy your own grinder and grind the steak yourself through your own clean grinder. Then you should consume it fairly quickly, because the ground beef is far more exposed to bacteria. This isn't a big deal if you plan on cooking thoroughly, though. I've never had what I suspected to be food poisoning in my life, and I've eaten plenty of steak tartare and blue rare steak as well as medium rare hamburgers (when ground at a good butcher or from a trustworthy restaurant). As long as you aren't buying bottom of the barrel meat that sources from sketchy farms, then the risk is very low.

I used to just cut raw steaks into strips and eat them with salt and oil

[Anonymous No.12732158]

Get on my level and eat raw pork

[Anonymous No.12732166]

Tasted bad, increased risk, harder to digest. Literally no reason to eat it raw except offending vegans, but you can do that by simply existing.

If it’s quality shit and it’s reasonably fresh you’re all good.

According to my mother, my grandfather used to eat ground beef raw with salt and pepper while watching t.v. He also died at like 34 from being a rabid alcoholic so make of that what you will. .

you are missing out my friend. some of the best food ive ever tasted made me sick for days after. its all about eating at family run mexican hole in the walls brah.

I've eaten at plenty of Mexican run restaurants in the US southwest. I spent a month in Mexico living with a distant cousin-in-law and didn't get sick. And the seriously handled food in a way that would give the average American a full on panic attack/meltdown.

>>12732273
same with my grandmother. but that's what happens when you drink as much as you possibly can from dawn till dusk for as long as they did. my mom was in foster care well before they died because they were both so drunk all the time. funny thing is somehow my mother is the kindest person i have ever met despite the hellscape of a childhood she had. anyways, don't eat raw meat just fucking cook it God damn.

There is your problem. Come to Florida.
There is legitimately a chance you will get hep A from the average taco bell here.

Yes?
My father died at 43. He’s still the grandfather of my kids.

Jesus christ. When I hear people die that young it amazes me, but then I remember that they are likely american. Holy fuck what a third world toilet the US actually is. Not even memeing, the mortality rates there alone is unbelievable

He means he has exceeded that age and the real possibility of never settling down with someone and raising children has been presented to him.

[Anonymous No.12732426]

You don't think the rest of the world has alcoholics?
The guy must have gone pretty fucking hard at it to die at 34, but it's not unheard of.

Depends on the source, but generally no.

That’s what happens when you have a largely unregulated capitalist private healthcare and pharmaceutical companies charging exorbitant prices for treatments and drugs while keeping the politicians in power on their bankroll.

[Anonymous No.12733039]

What's the solution

[Anonymous No.12733050]

>>12733039
Get rid of the politicians the companies will have to charge prices people can actually afford to pay.

So we can keep this shitty system moving? Nah

[Anonymous No.12733086]

>>12731962
No, it's not safe. It's a stupid fucking meme and only got popular because of some literal balding autismal sped youtuber who used to be a fucking vegan tries to be an edgelord by eating roadkill in front of vegans and he talks like has only a partial brain. Good luck with those parasitic worms that will burrow into your heart, kidneys, and brain.

>b-b-b-but your ancient ancestors ate r-r-r-r-r-raw
Yep, and they died in their 20's and 30's from parasites and bacteria in raw meat, which is kinda one of the main reasons people cook food to begin with.

Regardless of safety it's kind of disgusting, not easy to eat and not easy to digest.
Warm meat straight after killing the animal might be better but a cold steak bought at the store? No thanks.

Cavemen must have eaten raw meat, it’s super paleo

[Anonymous No.12733435]

>>12731962
If you hunted the animal with a spear and at the flesh on its still quivering body probably fine

[Anonymous No.12733492]

Amerifats don't know their own history
this is literally how hamburgers started
raw ground/torn/shaved beef with egg yolk, onions, garlic, mustard etc is still popular across Europe
