chicken in Tokyo. Torisashi, they served it with a lil wasabi. It was honestly extremely good, but I never thought I'd be able to get past the mental block of eating raw chicken.

Also got to try horse (raw and cooked) a few times this week
i've had undercooked chicken a few times and felt like throwing up

This was different tbf, I think they use a breed of chicken that is confirmed to be salmonella free for this. Still, not super common. I recommend trying it if you come, just something you can't get in the US.
I'm getting flashbacks of that medium-rare chicken meme

It's just chicken so I can't see how it's somehow better because it's raw.

They use a specific breed of chicken that is supposedly salmonella/parasite free. I think they're extremely careful about the animals they use for raw meat here.

You can't get chicken that is "salmonella free" what you can do is manually verify there are no parasites and then cut away the exterior layer of the chicken where the bacteria is. It's safe to eat (as long as it's prepared hygienically) but I think it plain tastes gross.
It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

Fair enough. I didn't think it tasted gross, it was a very light tasting meat and mostly tasted like whatever you dipped it in.

Didn't get sick, but I think japanese food standards are way higher than the US. I've had raw chicken, horse, and beef (the last two multiple times), as well as raw eggs constantly. You can get raw egg all over the place in Japan.

I don't always eat raw chicken, but when I do I prefer salmonella free

Fuck it. I'd try raw chicken at this point.

Raw beef sandwiches are a thing in Wisconsin for the holidays, I've eaten them a lot without ever getting sick.

They have them in MN too. Raw ground meat tends to be a lot riskier than raw cuts of meat, though.
I literally just made some and it seemed a bit less cooked than usual. Should be fine.

From what I hear if a chicken is fresh killed there's little risk of getting sick off eating it raw. The bad stuff seems to come from being processed at a factory.
This is where cool people write stuff.

It comes from their poop. Factory farmed chickens spend all day rolling around in their own poop.

I don't see the point. Raw chicken. Is tough, cooked chicken is tender.

People think raw chicken is WAY more dangerous than it actually is.

Would I eat it? No, but I'm not going to live in the fantasy land where people think if you eat undercooked chicken that you're going to instantly die.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.
I wish I would have try sparrow when I was there. I didnt find anywhere to try horse, I would have given that a go as well.
No matter our origin, we are all one family, we all share one planet, and we all need to feel loved and accepted. We are more alike than different.
I've had it in Tokyo many years ago. I liked it.

Raw chicken was amazingly tender, dunno what you're talking about. Wasn't even chewy.

And yeah, I don't know why he thinks raw chicken is tough. If I'm having chicken breast I like it sous vide so I can safely cook it to around 60-62 C or about 140-145 F for people who need Fahrenheit.

Very juicy and tender, 73 C 165 F and it's dry and more stringy.

Dark meat on the other hand, cook the shit out of it, it's damn near bullet proof, can't fuck it up.

Torisashi is literally poached at a high temp for a short period to kill off bacteria. That's why it's safe to eat there. Not to mention everything is sterilized and the chicken. Is super fresh. It's served immediately after its prepared

I've tried it here in Korea. Not something I'd ever eat again tbh. Mental block aside, it simply does not compare to cooked chicken lol

Pretty sure that's Toriwasa, which is a different dish.

No it's torisashi. Even the pictures I pull up when searching it shows that it has been poached on the outside. I even looked up how it's prepared. If it's seared or grilled it's toriwasa

You can break cooked chicken apart with your hands, you can't raw chicken.

Can they irradiate raw chicken like they do beef for steak tar-tare?
he/him/his
If offered for free yes. I would not seek it out nor pay for it though.

feel like very few foods are better raw than cooked. like yes some foods are good raw (fruits aside), like I fuck with some sashimi. would I say raw tuna/salmon is better than cooked though? no, just different. a good, cooked steak is still better than tartare, though tartare is a good dish. I can't imagine raw chicken being better than cooked chicken so I see no reason to ever risk it except maybe like once out of curiosity
