Dear AHT: Have You Ever Gotten Food Poisoning from a Burger?

Posted by Adam Kuban, June 29, 2009 at 3:00 PM

Burger from The Spotted Pig.

Recently after talking to my dad about an excellent burger that I got at a local restaurant, my dad told me that " You really should get your burger cooked more than medium-rare." I told him that I am perfectly fine with my burger the way it is and if I get sick than it is my own fault, but I will still continue to order it that way even afterwards because it tastes so much better.

It got me thinking and I figured I would pose the question to "Burger Authority"; have your ever gotten sick from ordering an "undercooked" burger or do you ever wonder if it could happen to you?
