Question:

Can you get salmonella from eating raw cookie dough with eggs in it?

I always have eaten a little but my friend thinks I'm going to get salmonella. How much do you have to eat for that to happen? is it likely?


Answers:

Theoretically you can. It's rare to get salmonella in home kitchens. Usually people get it from restaurant food. If your eggs are fresh, you're probably safe. You can buy pasturized eggs that are totally safe to eat raw. You could also leave the eggs out if you're just planning to eat the dough.
