on a steak, if you sear the meat, none of the meat inside has been in contact with external bacteria so it's safe to eat rare.
in a burger, for example, the steak was ground and what was inside is out and what was outside and in contact with bacteria is mixed in...and that is why badly cooked burgers are usually a good way to get food poisoning.

Oh, I know--sorry if I wasn't clear, that I WILL NOT eat kibbe nyeh (ktsp's beloved Lebanese dish)--but we had a good laugh earlier that while he gets on my case for licking the batter spoon clean (with raw eggs present), he doesn't seem to have a problem eating raw ground beef--which I see as being completely and totally revolting and unhealthy. So we had to agree to let the other person eat his/her own risky food, and let the other one be.
Yes, these are the very serious things we "argue" about, hehehe.
