A visitor from the U.S. got more than they asked for at a Toronto hotel restaurant when they ordered a cheeseburger on Monday night that was served with a waiver on the side.

    In Germany they sell ground beef that is save to eat raw. So either get save meat or, if your ground beef is not safe, bring this up directly when someone orders a medium or rare burger and not after the person already started eating.

      Right. If my only choice is well done, I’m getting something else. Don’t bring me a waiver after I’ve started eating it.

        How the hell do they manage that? Freezing like sushi or irradiation like fruit?

          It’s fresh enough that bacterial contamination isn’t a concern and they don’t have the trichinella worm in country. All meat is carefully inspected as well.
