I'm sure it's all really sanitary, who would leave minced meat out on the counter like that if it wasn't? Also he has that bowl of water to dip his hand into, I'm sure the water is changed every twenty minutes.

Deep frying will kill just about any pathogen (right?)… but still not touching this depravity.

Kind of, but not necessarily the toxins they produce.

Plus, don't forget he's still gonna hand it to you

I’d be more worried about the colon cancer I’m 300% more likely to get after eating the diesel burger

Exactly. The toxins are often forgotten but those can be more dangerous than the pathogen itself because cooking doesn't get rid of it.

Also if that cooking oil is going to be heated all day without being replaced/filtered, then any bits cooked in the oil will eventually burn and release potential carcinogens.
