Raw meat?

Sorry for the slow response............

I need to do more study. I wonder just what, or how, blood was defined back then. It states that the blood is the life there of so what is it exactly. Does the blood actually get into the meat or does it basically stay within the blood vessels but rather feeds the oxygen by osmosis to the myoglobin for the mucsle tissue? These are questions I have to answer and am wondering why there are so many websites stating that what we see on the meat at the store is not blood.

Oh for heaven's sake. Have you never had a basic anatomy & physiology class?
The blood, RBCs anyway, stays in the vessels, unless the meat is bruised. But the capillaries are everywhere. You can't find a cubic millimeter of meat that isn't shot through with capillaries. An RBC sitting in a capillary in the middle of a steak isn't going anywhere, and some WBCs have an unnerving habit of squeezing through the vessels into the interstitial spaces where no amount of soaking, salting or boiling is going to dislodge them.

Maybe 30 years ago or so. I've forgotten most of it. This is why I said I needed to research and study.;)

If this is trully the case then maybe everyone else I have read and studied from including the jews have it all wrong then.

If I can't dip my chips in the blood,it is just not a steak.Lamb has to be at least pink in the middle too.

What do you guy's do with the offal,ever try haggis?

So what did they do with the Passover lamb? It states to kill it and roast it all pretty quickly and eat it in haste. It also states no water. It also said not to eat of it raw but what about rare?

When was the Passover? Before Sinai. In the end why would one take the chance of violating the law they feel bound to based on what the internet or some hematologist says? Is a rare steak worth the risk? Is it even worth the effort of doing all the tracking down and study? And in the end if we aren't even going to follow what the Torah says about removing all blood , why even do it and study it?

Oh o.k.

So as to how they were commanded to do it before Sinai isn't the way they followed it after?

What chance? If we research and study and make the decision to do something based on our best educated conclusions where it adheres to the word of Yah then again I ask what chance? We would only be doing things to the best of our knowledge and not doing them presumptiously knowing that they are wrong. Just because man says its wrong doesn't make it wrong. If we find that by heating the meat to a temp. of lets say 140' F changes the blood in anyway then is it still to be considered blood? Yes it is cooked blood but is it blood? I see in my study that a temp. of 140' F deletes an electron from the iron center of the myoglobin and it is no longer called myoglobin. If the red and white blood cells either die, change or lose their ability in anyway are they still to be considered blood? And what about what is left throughout the meat? How is it possible to get every little blood cell out of the meat? I am beginning to wonder if one can.

I think that it is very well worth the study and if I am wrong then i am covered by the laws of ignorence. lol :D

I haven't had haggis but I have Irish puddings in a pub. It was pretty good. Don't know if I could bring myself eat haggis though.

First one is always the worst.:D

Why do you think we drink so much whisky.:)

ty for giving me the correct spelling of the classic "Bulleit" on the other thread Noah!

The kosher meat sounds so appetising(not)

Cheers
