Asian groceries (H-Mart is awesome) have lots of fish (some of it still swimming) I'd eat uncooked. When I cook salmon at home, I only cook it to a point where the middle is warm, but still raw-colored. I find salmon that's been cooked through to be inedible.
TOTALLY agree! I’m almost disgusted by cooked salmon!! Love it raw! Just got back from a week in Japan...so many goodies!!

Love carpaccio and tartare (even had it at a trade show in Germany...not something I’d do in the USA!!).

Horse is quite tasty too!! Step outside your boundaries, explore, taste..!
In the US we don't eat domesticated animals and pets, at least not yet. So tell me PUCKER, do you also eat dog and cat? :shock:
Bitter, I think that Los Angeles had a law allowing Vietnamese to eat dog, not sure if they still have it. When I was in the Air Force there was a big scandal about the commissary selling horse meat. They called it some kind of a French name to disguise it but it was horse meat.

Because of that I'm restricted by the gov't from donating blood. Yes humans can be affected by it. I've had no ill effects, but I make sure all my beef is at least medium before consuming it.
I believe you have to eat brain or spinal cord to get mad cow and apparently the prions are not destroyed with heat. Hard to believe.

Re: Ever Eaten Raw Beef?

Abraham
My family is from Austria and Poland, no we didn't eat raw meat but if I told you what we did eat you would probably rush out of the room. Those delicacies are still near and dear to my stomach and my wife has even taken a liking to some of them (but not most). I don't think any part of an animal was discarded from the diet of poor Europeans. But never raw. Cooked fish roe were a delicacy too.Tongue, sweetbreads, heart, lung, you name it and we ate it. I wish I had grandma's old recipes too.

Re: Ever Eaten Raw Beef?

Listeria, E.coli, Salmonella. All can kill you. Prior to pasteurization of milk it was tuberculosis. You take your chances when you eat raw meat. I love oysters but I am afraid to eat raw oysters nowadays. Can't get a good hamburger at a restaurant nowadays as they are all overcooked for my taste. As a youngster I went to an Oscar Meyer slaughter house in Southern California. I still eat hot dogs but I cook them good. I think for most people it's what you don't know won't hurt you.
