Salmonella and trichinosis cancel each other out.

Trichinosis is not a concern when eating Mett.

Cos trich hasnt been in pork for fucking decades on decades thats some bible shit. Im not saying eat raw pork, but its safe to eat pork at 140 which is lower than chicken. I think pork at 140 is gross and i dont like the texture i like it more cooked. But eating fresh just ground pork or beef for the intention of it being consumed raw is fine, dont just go buy any pork or beef now. Find a source who is doing it for the intended purpose.

Every pig that's butchered in Germany is checked for it.

Additionally the processing, sales and storage rules are very strict, esp. when it concerns raw minced meats.

Same reason salmonella isn't a concern with raw eggs. Food safety standards.

Salmonella is basically non existent here, but tbh I never ate an egg from a supermarket so I can't say, but I ate hundreds or thousands of raw, cooked, baked whatever eggs fresh from the chickens ๐Ÿ˜‹

Because every pork gets checked for it.

Salmonella might appear from time to time if raw eggs were too old. there are about one case every two years or something like that.

Modern pork is definitely safe to eat medium at least. Fine dining restaurants are supposed to serve it medium because thatโ€™s where it tastes its best.

Medium rare pork is generally not served mostly because the texture is disgusting.

There hasn't been a documented farm-caused case of trichinosis in years. Thats one of the few good things of factory pork. You are unlikely to find a pig who had encountered a soil living parasite. Plus they do a lot of testing and all that.

Its basically safe in the US amd Europe to eat raw pork.
