As a veg*n I would raise an eyebrow at someone taking offence at the mention of meat... But then, I raise an eyebrow at people taking offence at other people's journals most of the time. *shrug* But I like my steak still on the cow ;)

I'm with you on that gayalondiel.

To wellinghall, if I ate steak, I would want it well done. (Does this help or hinder your statistical analysis?).

[jane-somebody.livejournal.com]

I agree with the whole of this comment.

As long as it's warmed through, the rarer the better. Blue is incredibly difficult to cook, so although that's what I ask for, I usually get rare.

[king-pellinor.livejournal.com]

Ditto.

It is easier to get it cooked bleu in France.

To quote Teddy; bang it on the head, wipe its bum, then put it on the plate...

[miss-t-ide.livejournal.com]

That would be just perfect, as it would still be warm...

Precisely.

[wemyss.livejournal.com]

I must confess, I've given in and simply ask that it be rare.

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

Ditto. Cold in the middle is not good. But as long as it's warm, I am happy. Mmmmmmsteak.

If I do eat steak, I like it very well done. Which is not burnt.

How can people bear to eat raw or semi-raw meat?? (*ducks hastily*)

[didiusjulianus.livejournal.com]

You are more likely to get e.coli from raw/rare meat than well done. And probably ditto worms and several other things. Yuck. One of the reasons cooking was invented! I can understand though that people don't like tough meat, and sometimes well-doing meat (poorly) can result in something tough and unappetising. And sometimes it doesn't help the flavour either. Each to their own, but I'm not going anywhere near rare meat or its eaters during the process. Urgh.

I think I may have voted twice. Delete one medium, if I have.

I got mislead by the 'tartare' thing, and then remembered how nice raw Japanese beef is. Also nice cooked.

[el-staplador.livejournal.com]

Heh. The kind of beef I eat these days has to be soaked in vinegar and oil for several hours, and stewed for a couple more, to be remotely edible. To be honest, I don't do steak much anyway, even when eating out.

Medium - it's important that the middle is still pink (so would that in fact be medium rare???).
