It is still easy to get rare steak and sunny side up eggs.
No warnings on the steak and as long as the restaurant puts on their menu "the consumption of undercooked eggs can cause illness", they are no longer liable if one gets sick from the undercooked eggs.
Now if it is determined the Salmonella outbreak was caused by restaurant neglect (for lack of a better word) then the restaurant can be held liable and closed by the health department.
So basically if I go to a breakfast restaurant, eat undercooked eggs and get sick: my bad.
If I go to a restaurant that does not serve undercooked foods and several people that ate there get sick, restaurant bad.
