Sooooo delicious! I miss eating raw egg on everything. You can't do that in the US. Nor can you eat raw beef!!! There are a few places that serve beef sushi. Raw beef on rice with wasabi. Sooooo delicious!!!
I just made myself hungry....

I know the feeling
Raw beef is quite commonly eaten here in Belgium though, so I'm quite used to eating that (and I love eating raw beef).
