I Germany, my neighbor gave me a raw meatball to "taste", meaning eat the whole thing and tell me if it's good. I ate it, and was glad I was in Germany where I knew there was a federal govt watching out for what folks ate.
Here in the US, my guilty pleasure is Long John Silver's Crumms. Ssshhhh. Don't tell my kids. They actually prefer salad.

Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, I guess. Raw pork and raw veal in those brats, plus some spices. The chance of trichinosis isn't as dire as it was a couple decades back. I guess I don't think I'd eat it without cooking it, but you haven't keeled over yet, so more power to you.

When I was younger, I would sometimes help my grandma make stuffed cabbage. If there was any leftover ground meat/rice mixture (raw), we'd make sandwiches out of it and eat them while the stuffed cabbage was cooking. Mmmm...raw meat sandwiches -- ground raw meat, no less. Anyway, she lived to be 81, and she did that her whole life. So...you're probably okay!
(I, however, gave up red meat many years ago. But I love sushi.)

Chain food cheeseburgers. I already know why they taste so good at first and so lousy at the end... but every now and then, just about once a month, I LOVE going into McWhatasonicburger and chowing down. It's the fries, I think, that seal the deal.

Add a raw egg to that and take your chances! ;)

Raw bacon, and White Castle, but I love raw bacon, parasites be damned! In fact, even when I cook bacon, I like it rare. I've never met anyone else who share this taste.
