I have had medium rare chicken in Japan. Horrifying to look at, but tastes great. I also would never, ever eat it in any other country.
MightyMouseTech
Have had chicken tartare. Still alive.
puffthemagicdracula
I got food poisoning twice in 2 months. Just looking at this brings back horrible flashbacks.
CallMeVoodoo
Probably safe but not goin in these guts baby.
Goodmerlinpeen
The inside of a breast is unlikely to have been infected with bacteria
tarataqa
I always like to check on the first date....Just to be sure.
minipancho94
fun fact, according to some food scientist on twitter last time this showed up, 98% of the bacteria is on the skin. still a bad idea though.

Just thinking about the texture of undercooked chicken makes me want to throw up
SweetRage

frostybox
i brine breasts, if you dont overcook them sometimes they have an almost raw texture, you can feel every muscle fiber you bite thru, ick
4shizzlemynizzle
you haven't had chicken if you haven't had raw chicken
tarataqa
in the biblical sense?
AirshipEngineer
I was once served Chicken Sashimi. If you have a local Farm that sells chicken and can guarantee it's safe it's actually pretty darn good.
PossiblyJewish
Cutting/holding raw chicken gives me the willies. I can't imagine eating it raw ;-;. More power to you friend.
MightyMouseTech
Yup, have had a couple times. Not bad.
moto192834
I can stomach almost anything but the texture of raw chicken makes me gag. I can't imagine that tasting good
AirshipEngineer
Yeah but that's also pretty personal. Like I gag whenever I eat Jell-o but some people like it as a desert. Different strokes I guess.
DC1888
Isnt rare chicken a thing in Japan?
puffthemagicdracula
But that's also "killed literally 5 seconds ago in the back of the store" chicken.
JapantsOffDanceOff
Yup, raw chicken is pretty dope. Raw eggs, beef, horse, is all fairly good here.
NoVoteForYou
I really hope these people are all joking...if not, they will learn real fast why medium rare chicken is not a thing.
KomodoKill
Mmmmm with extra salmonella
Cebrail
I wish Salmonella was guranteed fatal in cases like this.
FleebCollector
Usually how my chicken turns out :( then I get frustrated and just end up microwaving the shit out of it. I suck.
jadestar117
This hurts my stomach

Natural selection: it's a thing
barnwolf
It's Salmonella not polio.
dwoverdrive
I love how all the names of the people who posted the pictures are blurred out...criminals.

I like the guy that knows about salmonella best

Seriously, why can you eat beef medium rare and all that and not chicken? Is it because chickens are closely packed in one area? Disease?

HannibalPoopsPeople
I know right?!? They're calling all of that medium rare when most of them are rare/very rare/seared!!
Applepotamus
electrikwordlife
At first I thought it was a joke, but there are enough of that at least one is real.
Randome202
Feels like one of those 4chan pranks to get people to do or believe in dumb shit.
Sinia
Makes sense... but that one with the salmonella tags...
ThirstyTrollTranslator
This is only because certain countries' health standards can't support clean farmed chicken. You can, for example, eat raw chicken in Japan
dooremouse
This is true. I got downvoted for trying to say this too.
bovanshi
You can KIND OF make chicken medium rare. With sous vide. Chicken is possible to cook as low as 55 degrees C* which is basically cooked rare
PreciousPotato
But it's still all cooked, isn't it? As in NOT RAW. It just takes longer.
bovanshi
*Need to cook for several hours
greven145
Correct. http://www.amazingfoodmadeeasy.com/info/sous-vide-safety/more/sous-vide-safety-salmonella-and-bacteria
Goodmerlinpeen
45 mins, if the middle is the right temp then it's already done
barnwolf
Pretty sure the point of Sous Vide is to cook at low temps that take a while to kill off germs. So no, not instantly done when temp is right
Goodmerlinpeen
Salmonella won't be on the inside of the breast so when it is at temp the outside will have been at temp long enough. Do you cook sous vide?
Goodmerlinpeen
Not it isn't, sous vide let's you raise the temp without overlooking the meat, and tenderising over long times
DaveGrohlsLegWiggle
Please tell me people aren't that stupid....
tarataqa
JUST A PRANK, BRUH.
Imnotaclevergirl365
I feel like a couple of these might be jokes.. Like they didn't realize ir wasnt done all the way through and just made a joke of it. I hope
plouffi
It was my thought as well.

I could... but I would be lying to you

SuedeCaramel
Cooking chicken until total done-ness is a fairly American habit, I've been told.
ferocat
Ireland is known for boiling the shit outta our food but I've never heard of anyone not cooking chicken all the way through...
dasklaus
German here - I've never seen chicken not totally done. We value our life, too.
dooremouse
It is and a few other places too. But they eat it in varying degrees in many countries. Japan, Denmark, and France to name a few. They 1
dooremouse
process and raise their chickens better in those countries and therefore have chickens salmonella free.
barnwolf
Salmonella usually isn't deadly, unless of course your immune system is weak. (aka. old, young, sick...)
ballerinawannabe
Yeah but it sure would ruin your day.
barnwolf
Yep but that's a survivable learning experience. If they continue doing it, it's probably because they aren't getting sick.
MomToldMeToOpenImgurSoIDid
It works for the greater good if they are, gotta clean the gene pool somehow...
NoLuckCatchingThemSwansThen
The greater good.
TransGirlsDoItBetter
Some sort of large gene pool filter, like those robots to clean the scum. Except it kills people.
filben7
They are, about 25% of the population is essentially semi functionally retarded(I mean actual special needs).
dasklaus
0.15%, actually. Mental retardation is IQ 70 or lower, that's three standard deviations. Might be higher because of illnesses, brain damage,
dasklaus
and genetic disorders, but nowhere near 25%. 16% are below 90, though, which is the treshold for special education needs in Germany.
filben7
At 16% thats 56mil in america... trump got 60mil votes.
dasklaus
And those 56 millions include kids, non-citizens, felons without the right to vote, and others who could or did not vote at all.
dasklaus
Time to acknowledge that people can be ignorant and incompetent at evaluating presidential candidates without actually being retarded.

To give you perspective, bottled water sales in the US in 2016 was over $16,000,000,000.00 ($16B). Much of the water sold was tap water.
anageorgi4547
Same in UK ! Tap water is shit here ! Never bay cheap still water from the supermarkets! Bay good cuality one! If not tap water to be
Thellluminati
My last place had gross water.. I did a cost analysis based on price, time, and effort and found that bottled water was the way to go for me
minipancho94
yea, but i cant connect my car to the watermain. that said, those bottles are for giving away/emergencies/when i forget my refillable.
flumphcushion
How much of that was sold in Flint, Michigan?
notmyfirstrodeo
Flint likes heavy metal in both their music & their drinking water.
MohawkDave
Agreed. But at $2 for 35 bottles, it's a convenience factor for me. Time allocation....
notmyfirstrodeo
Many places beer is cheaper per oz than bottled water. Restaurants love the idea of charging for something they used to simply give away.
physicsisalwaysrelevant
While not strictly illegal to deny free water, water is considered a medical fluid, and can cause a business a lot of issues.
Somanyquestions
Is it really longer to fill a bottle at the tap? Takes about 5 seconds.
lonewolf658
But where are taps when you're on the road for multiple days at a time? Especially if you can't stand either city water or well water?
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Have one of those coolers with a spigot??
Somanyquestions
Then fill up 35 bottles before you leave. Result is the same.
MohawkDave
Yes. I make more money and better time management on the PC vs filling water.
Somanyquestions
Fair enough.
Whosthere
You can fill 35 bottles in 5 seconds? That is some crazy ass water pressure
Somanyquestions
"a bottle"
dooremouse
The threat of salmonella mostly comes from eating commercial chickens that are kept in cramped cages shitting on each other. A free range 1

Please provide sources for this information.
dooremouse
None, other than experience. You could google it if you like. Commercial chicken bad. Individual/small scale chicken good.
