Some people LOVE raw cookie dough - but is it safe?


The next time your kids beg you for a bite of that raw cookie dough - just say no...

It’s not the eggs or dairy in there that’s dangerous, it’s the raw flour. It really can make you sick. According to the CDC, 77 people in 30 states fell victim to a raw cookie dough E. coli outbreak in 2011.

Don’t let your kids, or Grandma, lick the spoon either. Batter for cake, brownies or anything containing raw eggs could contain toxic salmonella bacteria and can weaken the immune system in elderly people or young children.
