Hey, everybody, the CDC says we should stop eating raw cookie dough because 18 people were sickened.

Meanwhile, keep breathing in #COVID19 in big crowded spaces without a mask. It's only hospitalized 422,000 and killed 38,000 Americans so far in 2023.

The CDC wants people to stop eating raw cookie dough. But it’s so tasty.

A salmonella outbreak linked to raw cookie dough has sickened at least 18 people across six states, according to the CDC.

This is the work of Big Cake Batter. No raw cookie dough but notice how the CDC doesn’t warn against licking the cake batter remnants from the bowl or from the beaters?

@RuthODay @augieray The flour bags say cook before eating. Been licking beaters 70+ years. :)

@augieray @RuthODay Had steak tartare. They charge extra for not cooking the hamburger. :)

Only the best for you, Steve!

I pay extra, too.

In Germany they have this thing called “Mettbrötchen”, which is a sandwich made of minced raw pork (Mett), which I tried and lived to tell the tale, along with millions of Germans (maybe Austrians and Swiss, too?).
