How much of an immune system do you believe you had against this type of
bacteria?  The reason I ask is that I grew up on a farm, played around
manure, got it on my hands, clothes, etc.  I remember throwing up a lot as a
kid, but once I hit age 10 or so, I seem to never have gotten food
poisoning.

I think I read somewhere how most bacteria colonization on meat happens on
the surface.  That's why ground meat is bad--all surface area.  So for other
types of meat, no matter if grain or whatever-fed, wouldn't searing the
surface suffice?
