Question:

Is it bad to eat/lick cake mix w/ raw eggs?


Answers:
My mom always said there was a danger of catching some disease (because of the germs or bacteria), but it rarely happens!!

No. Eggs are pasteurized which means that the harmful bacteria are killed during this process. If the carton says pasterurized then you are fine.

yess..because bacterial can be killed through high heat..

I do it so why not

You can get salmonella poison.

You can buy pasteurized egg if you want to do that.

People do it all the time.

If Rocky can drink raw eggs I say go for it.

my mom says that it is bad, but i do it any way

Raw eggs are full of germs and bacteria. It is best to fully cook the eggs before you eat.

Not if you dont sit there and eat the whole bowl

well i think that anybody can get sick from it but nothings happened to me yet so i still eat it

well, yes! it is uncooked! totally

It's bad to eat anything containing raw eggs. Raw eggs can contain salmonella (a food born disease) that can make you really sick.

HOWEVER.....I LOVE licking the batter from cakes, brownies, and cookies. I'm 31, and have been doing it my whole life, and have yet to get sick. I'd say if you don't eat the whole batch of batter then you should be fine.
