It'll be fine if it was good quality meat!. If it was prepackaged premade burgers from the back of the supermarket meat section!.!.!.!.!.!.!. well, you'll find out tomorrow!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The danger zone for the temperature of any food that needs refrigeration or cooking to be safe is 40*F-140*F!. Anything in between those two temperatures can pose a health risk if consumed!. Chances are, though, you probably got it up past the 140* mark, even with the meat still pink!. I don't think I would get too worried about it, if the meat had no strong odour and was fairly fresh, it probably won't be a problem!. I often have my burgers rare in the middle!. If you get any signs of a bad upset stomach, nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, etc, you should definitely go to your doctor or outpatients as this could be food poisoning, and these signs can happen anywhere from 1 hour to 24 hours after you have eaten the meat!. Just remember next time to show a little patience, even when you are starved, or buy a meat thermometer just so you will know you are safe!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Raw ground meat of any kind is DANGER with all Upper Case letters!.
Did the inside of the patty you ate feel room temprature or even a little cool when you took a bite!? If it did the meat was NOT cooked long enough!. It should have felt hot at the very least and VERY hot ideally!.
!.
Cooking any meat to a proper temprature is important but cooking ground meat properly is vital!.!.!.as is washing your hands with soap & warm water after handling the raw meat and washing anything else that has touched it!.!.!.utensils, dishes & counter tops!.
!.
I hope you have informed your parents so that if you do begin to show signs of illness (vomiting, diarrhea, fever, stomach cramps, etc) they can get you to the hospital quickly!. You may be too ill to explain things to them by then so do it now!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

In February 2008, a bold and controversial study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association!. Inspired by Charles Darwin, scholars began to reevaluate the evolution of life on the planet Earth!. Top scientists from Stanford Medical School and Harvard Medical School reached a unaminous verdict!. 65 million years ago, the dinosaurs and 70% of all living species on Earth became extinct from eating undercooked pink hamburgers!.

Next time, please be more careful!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are a number of risks associated with eating uncooked meat!.
Most of these relate to the bugs in the meat not being killed off in the cooking process!.

Rare steaks = ok

Rare ground/minced meat = VERY dangerous!.

Be more careful next time, it can contain some very harmful bacteria!. Listen to the reasons from some of the others they pretty much sum it up!Www@FoodAQ@Com
