- If you ever visit France, and you hear people in Restaurants ordering steaks to be served “bleu” (=blue), you may think that this means “well cooked”, considering that the french word “rouge”( = red) would seem (at least logically) associated with undercooked meat.
- However, if you do not want a bleeding steak do not place an order “bleu”, as this means undercooked. Say instead “bien passé” (well cooked).l
