» Katrien Vander Straeten - asking for info on raw meat consumption

In response to asking for info on raw meat consumption posted by bici:

Hi Barbara,

Thank you for your reply!

All those restrictions, laws and warnings are there for Belgian meat as well. Still the product is sold as ready-to-eat and people have it almost daily. I've never heard of anyone getting sick. Could it be there is a greater immunity?

But so it would be your impression too that Americans in general are repulsed by eating raw meat? And for rational reasons.

I wonder in which other countries/cultures raw meat is consumed as often as in Belgium (and neighbouring countries: in France and The Netherlands too "toast cannibale" is on the menu).

Thanks!

Katrien
