Question: How can people eat raw cookie dough!?Why doesn't it make them sick!?
Answers:
I don't know about the cookie dough but when I was little I remember licking the spoon and clean up the bowl where cake batter was and I never got sick from it , I believe that times have changed and now we are prone to Salmonella because a lot of raw manure is used to make the soil fertile and whatever grows on it is already contaminated therefore chickens feed is not pure and natural !. So going back to the cookie dough in this day an age I wouldn't eat it unless it was baked!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

well!.!.!.most cookie dough has raw eggs in it, so you could potentially get salmonela, but most companies make sure to avoid that possibility!. However, that doesn't eliminate the risk!. also, raw dough of any kind can give weaker stomachs some trouble!. I personally prefer a freshly baked cookie over raw, but to each his ownWww@FoodAQ@Com

Have you ever eaten raw cookie dough!? Like the first guy said!.!.!.don't knock it til you try it!! Most of it is all natural ingredients!.!.!.save for maybe a few chocolate chips!. So I would actually think it would be healthier than that junk they serve you through a drive-thru window!.!.!.which is full of chemicals and fat!.

Now that WOULD make me sick!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

There probably isn't enough of the eggs in the small amount they eat to make them sick!. Plus, not all eggs are guaranteed tainted!.

If you want to be safe and eat raw cookie dough, make your dough with egg beaters eggs, which are pasteurized!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

why would you think that what cave did you live in!.you never as a kid got to clean the cookie dough that was left in the bowl!.with your fingers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Get over it!!! People have been eating raw cookie dough for years! Eggs are pasteurized now so the threat of salmonella from that is slim to none!. Make some cookie dough, get a spoon and enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

well i kno my cookie dough does not have any eggs, mostly sugar, butter, flour, ect!. that could be the reason!. i never heard of someone getting sick from uncook flourWww@FoodAQ@Com

The raw eggs have a slight health risk and the raw flour can give you a tummy ache but a few spoonfuls won't usually hurt you!. Ben and Jerry's even make an ice cream with cookie dough!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have to control how much I eat, or it may make me sick!.!.!.but it tastes sooooooooooooooooooooo much better as dough than it does as a baked cookie!!!!!! And now I want some! :(Www@FoodAQ@Com

It does make me sick!.!.!. usually because I eat WAY too much of it cause it's so damned good!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Why would it make them sick!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Don't knock it till you've tried it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
