Anxiety and Stress Forum - Help I Am Really Worried!

I just ate a hamburger that lookedvery well cooked on the outside but on the inside the meat was still pink, I only took 1 bite before throwing it away. My dad made it and he ate one too, Although i don't know if his was pink. Should i be worried? I really hate getting sick and do everything to avoid it.

Pink Burger

You will be fine and so will your dad. People call that rare or medium/rare and although it is disgusting to some of us it will not cause you any harm.

So i can be very assured? Just because it looked really cooked? It was a dark brown color with the grill lines o it looked very cooked. I hope i can rest my worries.

Stop causing yourself undue worry. Like the_girlfriend, my son eats them rare to medium rare of the time. Even his steaks!

hamburger meat doesn't have as much chance of carrying infection like poultry. Lots of people eat it that way and are fine. Smile

Alex ya can't always go around looking for things to worry about in life. It took my a long time to lear that. You worry to much over nothing. Almost seems like you enjoy worrying.
