When I was kid my dad would eat raw ground beef on crackers with onion. He told me as a young man he would patronize a bar for lunch that offered raw ground beef as the "lunch". As a struggling veterinarian trying to start a practice with his brother who was also a vet he worked as a meat inspector at a packing plant in the 1940's after the war. He never mentioned people getting sick from processing as they do now a day. Whether his plant was very clean or any news about contamination was quelled I don't know. I was surprised that it was really good. He also started me eating horse radish spooned on crackers as a snack. I wouldn't eat raw meat nowadays. though.
