Why is under-cooking food dangerous?

Answer 1

Because bacteria that causes food poisoning multiply much faster in a warm place, so if you have undercooked something it could have more bacteria than before. High heat kills most bacteria in our food so food that is cooked correctly is much safer. Our bodies can cope with low amounts of bacteria as our stomach contains hydroclhoric acid and this kills some of the germs too.

Answer 2

Nutrients are destroyed by overcooking.

Taste deteriorates when food is overcooked.
