Trichinosis was bred out of pork by standardizing the breed for production farming.
You have a minimal chance to contract it by eating undercooked ground pork but chances are it was caused by an outside source not the meat itself.

I eat pork tenderloin smoked on the Med. rare side and prime cuts at Medium.

I had pork tenderloin that was very pink at Tannin Wine Bar a couple of years ago and it was one of the best meals I have had. I didn't know how good pork was judging from mom's leathery pork chops all those years, so I rarely order it. Now I know, such a fine texture, right up there with a perfect filet mignon. (I know, I know, girly steak, whatever, I'm a girl.)

Uh oh.......

ROFL

Trichinosis is virtually gone in the US. There are only a handful of cases each year and they're mostly occupational infections rather than consumption.

The same goes for rabies. The number of humans getting rabies in the US is about 1 per year for the past several years. Once again, it's an occupational infection. Knowingly handling rabid animals (mostly bats) by researchers.

I just overcooked some pork the other day. Had to make spaghetti out of it.

I'm now remembering growing up on pork shoulders.

You're fine dude. Unless you died. In which case, RIP.

I just had dinner with someone the other night who ordered a prime rib to be well done. I don't think prime rib works like that.

I'm just going to assume that you have already decided to never speak to this person again.

Oh, of course.

I am a big fan of pork tenderloin (not the loin cut) and if you want a treat find Duroc (Sams?) or heirloom pork TL (organic of course) and smoke or Sous Vide.

I also hope that you kicked his Lilly ass

Yeah, that's a friendship deal breaker.

You had dinner with Trump? I hear he orders his beef well done.

Restaurants put prime rib on a cook top (grill or griddle) to cook (burn) them to order.
