This whole thread is just more evidence for why Americans aren't allowed to make fun of Brits for our food.

This should make any Brit feel good about American food. May I present to you another holiday treat? The Wisconsin Cannibal Sandwich, which is made from raw hamburger. (link1, link2)

This is real. I remember it being served at a friends party when I was little... and my mom making sure I didn't eat any.

Many cuisines have a version of eating raw beef: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steak_tartare

If done correctly it is perfectly safe and incredibly tasty.

This used to be popular in Germany. That's a mettigel. Used to be popular in Germany. Many people still like mettbrötchen, which is basically what you describe. Should definitely be fresh though, but they usually are.

Tartare sandwich? I'm French and approve, provided there some appropriate aromates in there.

my favorite part of my british heritage is seeing other cultures' foods and saying "i'ma cook that now"
