Obviously you don't get out much.


Obviously, you're a dipshit.


A suggestion was made that it preceded the term "steak tartare" and
may have originally been a steak of horse meat


Proof that it isn't American in the least, then. There's quite a taboo
against eating horse in both North and South America, as far as I know.

It doesn't have to make sense, even less so than French fries which
are Belgian, and the french only referring to the fries being
frenched, not French.
