I can understand his point. Historically, many of the 'health rules' are developed for military situations where an outbreak of cholera or some other food/sanitation illness can result in disaster.

Escoffier designed the Brigade de Cuisine based on military principles. And he died of old age in 1935.

Some rules are stupid and take forever to correct. Take pork. It's perfectly safe to eat modern pork loin cooked rare in the center. It took the FDA decades to lower the minimum acceptable temp from 165F. Trichinosis has not been a problem in the US for decades. We wiped it out.

Probably, he went the wrong way around to explain it, but he might just be frustrated with some stupid rules.

Thank you very much, Johnny, for the GOOD information. I love FR. I learn everyday I'm here.

“We wiped it out.”

Illegals are bringing back all of the wiped out diseases.

I would also not eat raw pork in any form. This is coming from someone with close family connections to one of the largest pork producers in the country.
