Best Answer

As a general rule of thumb, you should never eat raw beef as there is a small chance of the beef being contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. In addition, raw beef can carry other bacteria such as Salmonella, Clostridium, Camplyobacter, etc, as well as some parasites and viruses.

However, there are many stories out there about eating raw ground beef and eating raw meats in general. You can eat meat raw, but you should be aware of the potential risks involved in doing so. No source of meat is 100% safe - cooking reduces the risk of illness and death significantly.

Is Raw ground beef stored on a shelf above a tray of bologna an incorrect way to store in a walk-in refrigerator?

Yes - raw ground beef should be stored on the lowest shelf in a tray with an edge or a bowl. This helps contain any fluid that may leak. Raw ground beef may be contaminated with Salmonella, Listeria, or any number of other pathogens. Because bologna is a ready-to-eat product, any contamination with these pathogens can cause you to get sick.
