    It’s not just salmonella from the egg, it’s also e coli from the raw flour.

    If you want to make yourself cookie dough, remember to bake loose flour for a bit first to kill any microbes in that, too.

      And use unsweetened applesauce instead of eggs! If you get the cheap, bland stuff there’s no difference in flavor, and no risk from uncooked eggs!

      You can tank both of those things. You might get sick but they probably wont kill you if you’re lucky. Cookie dough should have some risk, its the only way to balance it.

        I was initially mad at this comment but you’re right. Cookie dough is too good. Literally an OP food. The fear of shitting your guts out is the only thing stopping a somewhat reasonable person like me from eating a whole pound of it.
