I seem to recall Michael won't eat meat with even a hint of
pink it it.

That's a shame. Some meats need to be thoroughly cooked. Some
are a better when a little pink side, and some are far better
rare or medium rare.  I prefer beef and lamb to be medium
rare. IMO a steak cooked past medium is a waste of good meat.

I can eat beef with a "hint" of pink, but that's about my
limit.  It's a mental block that I've struggled to get over. 
I'm not much for red meat either way, so when I eat beef, it's
likely to be a pot roast or stew.  Jenni likes medium cooked
steaks, but she usually makes those herself in cast iron to her
preference.

There you go generalizing again.  "Americans" like things cooked
lots of  different ways and meats cooked to many differing degrees

There you go generalizing again. "Americans" like things raw
sometimes and cooked sometimes. I think it is so typical of you to
assume americans only eat cooked food, and not raw vegetables or
uncooked fruits!

D, they are talking specifically on meat (not fish either if you

Does not take away from the point. Typical generalizing, it makes me so sad. =( Meat can be eaten raw as well so I think it is very sad they default to assuming it is cooked. There are many americans with a broad variety of taste.
