Help I Am Really Worried! Posted: 11-24-07 22:52pm
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.

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.

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.
