Some Wisconsinites may know cannibal sandwiches because they're a family tradition — or because of the warnings from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Cannibal sandwiches are a Midwest staple. Consisting of fresh raw beef on rye bread topped with chopped onion, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, the dish makes some squirm and others lick their chops.
Last December, the popular dish even gained international attention with a tweet from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services that warned against eating raw meat.
But where did the tradition come from? Why is it so popular in Wisconsin?

The only way I like liver….
It’s only fun until somebody gets Mad Cow Disease ...
Guam had beef keloguen... with those prik peppers found in the boonies. Mighty good.
[WIKI] [Quote] Kelaguen is a Chamorro dish from the Mariana Islands eaten as a side dish or as a main course. Similar to ceviche, a pickling marinade of lime juice, fresh coconut, green onions, salt and spicy hot peppers or donni’ is used to marinate cooked chicken, raw shrimp, fish or beef meat.[Unquote].
A bit of Soy sauce and Tabasco is also included.
If fish is used yellow mustard is substituted for the soy sauce.
I crack up a tostado or you can use corn chips.
Amen brother.
I know that as Hackepaeter, a German club staple here in HELLINOIS.
Amazing we aint all dead!
Never understood how people can eat beef “well done”
My mom and my mother-in-law both grew up dirt poor during the Depression and they cooked EVERYTHING to death cuz back then the last thing you needed was to get any parasites or worms, salmonella, hepatitus, and who knows what else.
And I reakon a lot of that well done food prep comes from a lack of positive sanitation practices or circumstances, and is handed down.
From there, I went over to my GF's house for breakfast (she was a waitress, usually got home about 4). IIRC, the dish was called zweibelrost, or raw hamburger with onion seasoning, and spread on toast, paired nicely with coffee.
Loosely translated, "your food always tastes great."
Doesn’t steak tartare have a raw egg and spices mixed in it? I’d try that.
Steak Tartare?
I think I know her....no wait that describes half my high school yearbook😂 The reason we restrict it to Christmas and bi-annual visits is the potential for heart disease. That and old age spread. Between the meat, cheese, German sausage and perogies, I would have died an early but delicious death many moons ago.
That probably is. And what youre saying is probably also why we know enough not to serve it on lettuce. There was no fresh lettuce during the winter and today only bacterial laden shipments would be available.
I just went to the original article, looks like something he quick whipped it together for the article figuring most wouldnt know any better.
