And then there are the Germans, eating raw ground pork on a bun.
It seems, you can get away with raw meat, if you buy it freshly ground from the butcher.

Edit: wrong kind of meat

On a bun? That's Mett and it's pork. Yes, ground raw pork. It's quite tasty. Sprinkle of onion usually.

He's getting it mixed up with Wisconsin, which does raw ground beef on a bun.

I'm Italian and I caught toxoplasmosis eating raw sausage ground meat as a kid, sooo...

But I did that for a long time before anything happened.

Yeah, as long as the equipment is sterile, and the edges with the bacteria are removed. That's not happening at your local grocery store.

I buy my filet américain at my local grocery store. It is made of a beef/pork mix (the fancier the more beef) and usually has an expiry date of T+2 days thanks to the added preservatives.

Industrially processing raw meat is perfectly doable, much to the Americans' utter disbelief. Belgium has entire specialized industrial supply chains for the massive local demand of raw ground meat bread spread.

Certainly, it's just a lot more work than the less sanitary "chuck the extra meat into the grinder" method we use here.

I'd love to try that raw beef spread BTW. I've had beef sashimi before, and it was great.
