Yeah, this - in Belgium, we eat raw pork all the time (search for "préparé du chef" by supermarket brand "carrefour dot be", 40% raw pork). And not all of us are worm-devoured brainless zombies, last time I checked.
Same with raw beef, fish, even water (salmonella anyone?): strong regulations at every step of the production line makes the customer safe.
Gosh I love myself a thick slice of bread with a fat lump of ground raw pork on it. Just add salt and pepper.
I'm hungry now, fuck you brain worm!
Yup, two days ago actually. Perfect with capers, Worcestershire sauce, raw (again!) onions, Tabasco sauce, egg yolk (guess what? Yes, uncooked), parsley and salt/pepper. Edit: Oh, don't forget the mustard!
In Brussels a tartare with French fries is called an Américain Frites, and is next to Mussels as Belgian National Dish.
One of my all-time favorite as well, will have it anytime it is safe to have. Like with fish! There are delicious recipes with fish! Carpaccio, Laap Pa (Laos)... that you better be careful around but are so, so good.
TMI: so the "Américain" in Belgium is raw ground beef, but in France is a sandwich with French fries added in the bread. French people are weird. In Belgium, if you ask for French fries in your sandwich, it is called a "mitraillette" ; I'll let you find the translation, Belgians can be weird too.
Met?
Mett!
Mett mit Zwiebeln!
