Canada

As a consumer, I would see the presence of such a waiver as a prompt to think about what necessitated this in the first place. Perhaps this kitchen isn't as clean as it could be, and something happened to prompt this level of (legal) caution. Yeah, it could have been an overzealous patron looking for a payday, but maybe someone had a legit case?

Would be nice if they did this for all meat purchased. Except the waiver should indicate the damage being caused to the climate

you want people to be able to sue over everything, this is the result.

id have signed, cuz i both enjoy meat and not suin' people for nonsense i caused.

e: i have in the past ordered 'as rare as you can legally make it'. most of the time i get stupid looks and they bring it rare, but sometimes they just nod and bring me a brick
