I mean it is kind of weird that “rare” is used to denote “barely cooked”, when it usually means “very scarce or hard to find”.
Haha this is amazing
Yeah, as a non-native speaker, I've always considered that really weird too. Same with "well done", which is apparently worse than murder if you're enthusiastic about steaks 😄
