unless you are eating at a high-end restaurant that grinds their own meat, then your burger should be well done, but steaks are a different matter.
Right. Steaks can easily be washed clean of any impurities, which do not penetrate below the surface. But if not rinsed before grinding the only way to neutralize is to fully cook the meat.
It's really just a matter of taste for me, but I'm glad my tastes go along with what's generally safe
