I’m always confused as to why it is only steak where the restaurant asks how you want it cooked. I mean, when I order chicken, fish, pork, and other types of meats, the waiter doesn’t ask me how I want well-done I want it cooked, but for some reason they do that for steak? Even other forms of beef products don’t get this kind of treatment. Nobody asks how well I want a hamburger cooked, or the beef slices in beef noodle soup. So why is steak special in the regard?

That’s strange about burgers. It’s very rare (heh) that I don’t get asked how I want it cooked, and that is generally places that specialize in thin patties. Sometimes local regulations won’t allow anything under medium, but where I live now anything is fine.
Is asking about burgers just a US thing? Our menus are full of warnings about undercooked meat, but we’re still allowed to order it. You also get asked sometimes about pork tenderloin, but never poultry.
