redstone SG DUH!!!! Of cos food is cooked!!! Unless it's stuff like salad, sushi... And 'cooked food' is bound to appear in every hawker centre, and even food courts here. It's an absolute disgrace!!!! Such bad English!!! It's like saying 'cold ice'.
PeRsEuS SG What's "Would the laughing stock for foreigners"? Food can be uncooked right? Thus food can also be cooked yes?
AugoeideS SG So, by your context, red meat MUST be, surely is, cooked, since its a food. chicken meat is a form of food, so we can take it as its cooked as well.
