    they will be fine! I agree with your OH. (beef and lamb can be eaten very rare and even pork is ok a tiny bit pink i think

    i dont think u should eat pink pork or chicken and certainly not pink burgers i think all processed type foods (burgers sausages)should be cooked through...sorry not a very positive post

    Skysky by very young my OH means under 2 so do not worry too much, but I seriously would not let her eat under cooked meat again as apparently you can get toxoplasmosis from undercooked meat, I only know this from reading iVillage for my grown up DD1 who is expecting. Apparently small children ( under 5) and unborn babies can be affected quite badly from undercooked meat.

    Do a web search for it I found info on https://www.ivillage.co.uk.

    Again the risks are very small but I would not risk it on a regular basis.
