Raw Cookie Dough, Just Say No!

 

It is the season for some serious baking, especially cookies…

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) wants to everyone to avoid eating raw cookie dough.

Yes it is very tempting when you are fixing batches of delicious cookie to taste the cookie dough, but the CDC wants to remind you not to do it. Eating unbaked goods can make you sick.

The reason for this is that the flour and the raw eggs can contain bacteria or salmonella, which can cause stomach pain, nausea, diarrhea, fever, vomiting and more.
