Answer 1

Some meats, like steak, can be served rare because bacteria only live on the outer surface. As long as you cook the outside, it’s safe.

Sometimes meat can be served raw if it’s prepared in a way that also kills bacteria. For instance, steak tartare or ceviche marinated in an acid like vinegar or lemon juice.
