Crap, I've just eaten some undercooked salmon... - Food and Drink

Count Chocula! · 02-06-2008, 15:55

...I think! It was kinda chewy(ish) but it looked pale so it seemed cooked. My mouth tastes kinda sour now.

I'm going through GCSE exams at the moment so I don't want to be ill!

ontheloop54 · 02-06-2008, 15:57

you can eat salmon raw!

Count Chocula! · 02-06-2008, 15:57

That's a very fair point!!

Madridista23 · 02-06-2008, 15:57

How undercooked? If it was still only slightly pink in the middle you should be OK. Lots of Chefs advocate cooking some fish 'slightly' underdone. Salmon is one of them.....

Raw fish is fine. The Japanese eat it a lot. Some fish though have worms in their stomachs.

Good luck with your exams. GCSE exams are a walk in the park compared with third year university ones.

sjc2007 · 02-06-2008, 15:58

Call an Ambulance

Tortue · 02-06-2008, 15:58

Its very unlikely to make you ill. Japanese eat raw salmon all the time as Sushi.

That makes me feel better! It was generally pale but looked a tad piny in the centre.

At least it wasn't cod or dogfish, they are brim full or worms.......remember disecting them in biology, they nearly had to scoop me off the floor.

You should be OK. Mostly it's shellfish that can be dangerous if undercooked or not cooked at all.

Yuck

Smoked salmon is raw.

DaisyBumbleroot · 03-06-2008, 07:50

when you get sushi though it is (or should) be very very fresh...

maybe thats why it tasted sour, it might have been a few days old - eeeewwww!!!

anyway, you'll be ok. In my sisters house when she was uni, some lads put a fish head in another lads closet for a laff... of course a few days later it started stinking to high heaven. anwyay, this one lad dint have any money and they were all going out on the lash, so they said they'd give him a fiver each if he ate the fish head. £25 to a student is lot of beer money (well in them days it was lol) so he ate it, crunched and swallowed - all captured on camera too. He immediatly reverse ate it however and it was quite sick. It was funny to watch though - even hough i am retching here.

he survived.

Oh and this was teacher training uni too hahahahaa - he is probably head of year now!

blurgh!!!

I can not watch him eat! I understand he has to survive but he takes too much pleasure in grabbing small snakes, ripping thier heads off and cruching down on thier bleeding bodies, chewing with his mouth open, spitting bits of snake everywhere as he tell us how disgusting they taste, body wriggling in hand...!

(You wouldnt want to be stuck out here for long, thats for sure)

DrPepper · 03-06-2008, 09:24

Even some of them are ok. You can eat Scallops raw and of course Oysters.

MisoSoup · 04-06-2008, 11:23

Still no word from the count...

It's not looking good

Survive my lovely backside, rumour has it he checks in to local Hyatt's and eats cook hamburgers for his dinner in the hotel restaurant.

macca@90 · 04-06-2008, 11:49

Having tried Tesco Value Scampi and thought it was okay I tried Tesco Value Salmon Trimmings

Lordy I was up at 1am with horrendous stomach pains and trots

Never again
