How long after eating a burger that's too rare...
 

... will it take before getting sick.. if you were to get sick from it. I only took two bites and about 3 hrs later get way sick. I'm ok now but still feel a bit "iffy"

:Oh crap

ground meat sucks...you never know what is in there

Oh I know. And I only eat a burger like once every 6 months. I just had a huge craving for one tonight and now I wish I hadn't... but my son and boyfriend are both feeling shitty so it might just be something else. I only had two bites. I'm SOOO NOT one that likes to ever send food back but it was totally bloody.

Sigh.. live and learn I guess.

frozen or fresh meat?

from my knowledge, unless you are part cave man, you shouldnt eat raw cooked burgers. because unlike a steak where bacteria cant penatrate the meat as easy, you already processed the beef down to which almost all of it is exposed to air and bacteria hops right on board. then you compress it back, taking any non good things that were once on the outside of the steak and putting them in the center. blah!

I had a friend that was a cook and said to never order a burger that is not "done" referring to raw on the inside. especially frozen ones, you should always have them cooked fully.

im not a doctor, but thats just my :2 cents: on burgers

I don't think frozen... but after I got a new burger (then my onion rings which I looked forward too all day long were not so yummy anymore due to sitting there) I overheard the waitress say "extra rare bacon burger" and figured that's what it was. Some guy ordered it and I got blessed with it.

Drink lots of water - you will probably throw it back up but that is the idea as your body is evacuating the toxins it does not like. Do not eat dairy products until you are better.

If you have some of the burger left or the meat it was made of or the package hang onto it as it can be tested to see what exactly it is that you have.

If you are still sick tomorrow go to the doctor to make sure it is not E coli or something serious.

Your son has a boyfriend?

E coli??????? Are you totally serious? Time to start googling. I don't have any of that burger left.

datatank, lol no my son and MY boyfriend... But we all ate different stuff so we'll see. We might all be getting the flu. I'd rather have the flu than Ecoli! omg

I order burgers and steaks rare all the time and have never been sick from any food exept for mexican.

I order steaks rare. Used to burgers as well but only if I cook them at home now. A lot of it has to do with knowing the restaurant you are eating at and how clean things are. In a restaurant you have not been to before go to the bathroom and see if it is clean before you order. It is usually a good indication of the establishments level of proper sanitation. That being said all it takes is for someone to break an egg in the walk-in and not clean it up properly and you have a living nightmare in a few days.

If you're seriously talking E. Coli it's 2 to 5 days, and there will be no doubt in your mind that something is wrong.

I agree with the above. If you're only feeling 'iffy' it's time to start Googling. If it's worse than that, go to the emergency room.

if ne gets sick in 3 hours they are usually dead within about 12 hours

Well yeah I did the whole vomit thing about an hour ago and I'm "ok" now. I'm not feeling too horrible but definitely "not right". My stomach feels more pain than nausea too.. we'll see. I'm gonna go climb in bed and watch a sex in the city rerun and crash. Hopefully it'll be gone by tomorrow.

Haha great.. well I guess I had better set my alarm or something

The only dirty places i eat at are mexican since i havent found a clean mexican place that had good food.

Just think, soon we'll be able to barf together, into the bay, on our own private beach!:1orglaugh

Dude! Don't go, you are one of the best guys here on GFY. Just scratch your balls and you're sure to feel better. :winkwink:

How cute, you're both puking together now :)

I can remember getting stomach cramps from a rare burger that had me sweating. I got over it, but it was scary at the time

Haha sweetie! Well I'm still feeling crampy and "off" but I'm ready to sign those papers today. I'll try not to vomit on her. I'm pretty sure I'm fine. After that Cancun episode I know that if something was really bad, I'd clearly know.

JJJust quit thinking of Shok...

you will quit puking !!!



ROFLMAO !!!

man i lves me a good burger..but always cooked med well

People manage to eat steak tartar ok. I like my burgers a bit on the still mooing side. As long as the meat didn't sit out for a while, it *should* be ok. Pork on the other hand...

Can you describe your bowel movements to me in detail?

Can you take a picture of the shotgun pattern your blowout made on the back wall of the toilet?

I could send you a scan of the underwear that I sharted in, if that would help...

Don't worry it won't kill you...









... but if it does, can I have your screenname?

I just went veggie because of things like this. I lost a bunch of weight and have insane energy. This might sound odd, but I can only compare it to like being on cocaine. I feel thin and healthy, energized. But its not drugs! Its amazing what fruit can do for you. And no more flesh rotting in my body.

Hope you feel better.

if you got it from a fastfood place you should of saved it and sued. easy money.

don't you have to take suppliments too?

Unless an establishment grinds their own meat and very damn often always get them well done. If cooking at home and your using pre ground meat again always cook well done. However if you grind up your own meat or have your trusted butcher grind some up for you and you bring that home immediately and cook it, you are free to go from medium rare to rare. It is all about surface area and bacteria usually from cross contamination.

Steak tar tare is same thing. Usually it is cut up and chopped to order so it is safer than the raw egg they put on it. Then again you stand a good chance from the same contamination if you order a fresh made caesar salad or anything else with raw egg or meat in it.

My friend had been feeling crappy ever since Christmas time but she thought it was just the bug going around...

Two weeks ago she went to the doctor and was told she had a mild form of E Coli...

Sounds like just a bout of food poisoning due to the under-cooked mince. Should be out of your system in 24-48 and a bit hours. If not go see a doctor, keep your fluids up and ya stay away from dairy.

Minced meat has way too many surface areas that when cooked in a patty style if not done propperly you get sick. Most meat pattys you get from fast food places are pre-cooked/blast chilled(frozen) then re-cooked so your fine.

Steaks only have outside tissue areas that need to be sealed, as steak muscle is pure, hence why you can eat blue/rare cooked meat and not get sick. :)

I don't see how you even took two bites if it was that bloody.. ickky ewww

This thread is making me feel sick...lol:)

And I would have sent it back for sure.. I wouldn't have taken the chance on getting sick..

Well now I just got a phone call from Sean at NSCash.. apparently Doug called him a couple days ago asking if I could have Valentines off for a few hours so we could go out to lunch or whatever. Well I was actually having so much fun working that when Sean icqd me and said "Tell doug yes" I had no idea what he was talking about so I didn't relay the msg. So I ended up forgetting to have lunch so I was totally starving by the time we went to grab some dinner.

So THANKS SEAN!!! I'll send you my worms fed ex tomorrow.

I eated food that i found on street when i was punk and never happened nothing to me. I guess im just lucky. :blinkblink:

Worms? :helpme

:helpme !!

Glad it's not just me. Think I'm still too close to that day I had that bad stomach ache. Memory is almost as raw as that meat.

E. Coli showing the love

I have some recalled peanut-butter I can send you for comparison.
