Maybe this should be in food & travel, but this falls under the "you can't fix stupid" category. 

Now, if you butcher your own meat, just maybe, but don't eat raw ground meat, folks.

Wisconsin residents are being urged by health officials to pass on eating a traditional holiday dish this year to avoid getting sick.

A "cannibal sandwich," considered a holiday favorite in the state, consists of raw ground beef on bread with sliced onions, salt and pepper.
But, "eating raw meat is NEVER recommended because of the bacteria it can contain," the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) said in a tweet on Saturday.

I think off-the-shelf ground beef is more dangerous than grind it yourself due to surface area and length of exposure.

Oddly enough, "steak tartare" is known in Europe as "steack a l'Americaine."  Carpaccio was "invented" in 1950.

It seems to come from German immigrants, which explains the Wisconsin connection.

Never have done a cannibal sandwich.  That said, I prefer well-made steak tartare with a quail egg on top over most great steaks.  There is little risk when you make your own from primal cuts.  Not a chance that I'd make it from some off the shelf package of ground beef.

Mett.  Popular German breakfast, made with raw ground pork:

On our last trip, I ate it three mornings in a row.  Nice breakfast with a cup of coffee, a dash of salt and pepper and a squeeze of lemon. 

But then, the Germans are a LOT more fastidious about their food safety than we are.

Mmmmm, I remember the Wabash Cannonball Sandwich on Manor Road during undergrad.

And most Parisa recipes have a little citric acid involved to “cook” the meat. 

Don’t tell Jess Pryles that. She insists her citrus-free recipe in her book is the ONLY recipe used in the castroville/hondo area. She had so much going for her...as much as a fake Texan could anyways.

Yeah, I have a recipe book with about 7 different versions, four of which contain lemon juice. Not a definitive ingredient but not out of place at all. I like Jess though generally.
