but keep in mind that there are pregnant people out there, old people out there, people with weak immune systems out there that are trying to protect themselves. maybe they want some beef.

There are things that maybe people with weak immune systems and pregnant probably shouldn't eat at all, and whatever they want to do or feel like they need to do is fine by me. Most aren't ordering well done steaks for that reason however. I just think it's a travesty and waste of some beautiful meat to do that, but even still, just understand how it's done at most places that aren't doing arse loads of volume in steaks. I've just never seen any way to take a 2" thick cut of ribeye and cook it all the way through to well done without either taking a good bit of time to get done or by having to nuke it or throw it in the fryer which is what happens most often in kitchens. Cuts like that just aren't meant to be cooked all the way through until they are brown throughout. What someone could do with such a thing besides drown it in ketchup or A1 I guess is beyond me.
