WHY would you do that?
It will NOT give you worms (unless it has worms in it), but it will give you a huge stomach ache!
1)it has yeast, flour,(sometimes nuts), milk products that all have to be baked, and if you have a sour stomach already, this will worsen it, and you may have to take probiotics/enzymes (good bacteria that will help your stomach digest this cookie dough, as well as set your digestion process back to normal.
Please, at least bake the cookie dough first, then eat it- you will be better off, and this will prevent any problems the raw,unbaked dough could cause you.
One more- check online about eating raw cookie dough, and the possible problems this could cause.

The raw eggs in cookie dough is what's unhealthy. It could very easily be contaminated with salmonella. Cooking the dough kills the bacteria.
One should never eat raw eggs for that reason.



You should be fine, I eat cookie dough whenever I make cookies even though i know i shouldnt. I suggest not eating that much because you could get really sick though!



No you cant get worms from cookie dough, it has raw eggs in it but people some times drink raw eggs for health reasons.



I'm sure that is just an old myth. There really isnt any ingredient in cookie dough that can give you worms.



no but mat give salmonella



I hope not cause I just ate some tonight



No but u shouldnt eat it that much!!
