Squeamish eaters irritate me

[turtlevette]

There are "meat and potatoes" eaters who've never downed a raw oyster in their lives.

Then there are a subset of the "meat and potatoe eaters" who need their steaks cooked to eliminate any signs of blood.

From time to time I overcook mine to medium rare and it tastes like a heated dishrag. I wanted to throw it in the trash.

A properly prepared steak should be dead cold after the first 1/8 inch of searing on the outside.

These people are missing out on a lot of good stuff.

More for me I guess.

I'm a cannibal. Does that make you squeamish?

Who are you to tell others how they should enjoy their steak?

I gladly transfer to you my lifetime allotment of raw bivalves and mollusks, and what the heck, raw fish as well. Snails included. Eat up.

You must really be bored.

I love sushi but the thought of eating a raw oyster with it's internal organs intact and the resulting urine and [censored] still contained therein isn't too appetizing to me.

I like my steaks medium well. I have eaten raw meat more times than I will admit though prefer it cooked medium well over rare or raw. Raw fish is surprisingly good though.

I like my steak pretty much the same way.

And nothing on top.

I once had a restaurant completely mess up a perfectly good filet mignon by sending it out with salt, seasoning, and some other stuff on top. Always see that kind of stuff at restaurants frequented by tourists.

Raw oysters... I've swallowed enough snot from being sick, I don't need to do it voluntarily.

What one person considers good someone else may dislike. It's called different strokes for different folks. It would be a pretty boring world if we were all the same. For someone to think the way they like something should be the same for everyone, well, that's the definition of aggorance. IMHO of course.

Just someone being a real man. Try it sometime.

I'll try anything once... But I like what I like. What irritates ME is when people act superior, as if we should bow before their feet just because they eat uncommon food.

Oooh you like raw steak... So cultured. "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!"

L. O. L. ...Give me a break.

I like steak rare, but i won't eat sushi or oysters. I only like fried clams. I'll eat calamari as long as its not all the same size.

So chowing down on room temperature tube steak is what classifies you as a "real man" this month?

I can never keep up with what all it takes to be a considered a man around here. A few months ago it was drinking craft beer. Before that it was owning a manual transmission with no power options vehicle.

I'll just keep being me. Enjoy your tube steak!

What else do real men do, apart from being intolerant?

I enjoy a ground raw beef and onion sandwich on rye just as I enjoy a grilled hot medium rare Ribeye with the fat melting into it I don't see how it makes me more of a man or not.
