A visitor from the U.S. got more than they asked for at a Toronto hotel restaurant when they ordered a cheeseburger on Monday night that was served with a waiver on the side.

What constitutes a small % to you?

Eating burgers cooked medium is very common. Well done beef is no different than eating leather.

    Ground beef isn't a steak and restaurants have health guidelines to follow because they don't want to make you sick, what you do at home is your problem (until it becomes ours because you get e.coli from undercooking ground beef that you didn't prepare yourself).

    Yeah and some people smoke their whole life and never get lung cancer, it doesn't make it safe to smoke.

    There's e.coli recalls every year, but hey, don't let that stop you, not as if it could kill you or handicap you long term to catch it (need an /s on that or you're good?)

    Do yourself a favor, get a meat grinder and make your own ground beef if you want to eat it medium. It's cheaper and much more delicious.
