Do you trust raw batter?

[JacinLarkwell]

Was making brownies and chowing down in the left over batter and started wondering. I trust my flock (yeah yeah, I know the risk is still there, yada yada, it tastes good, alright?), but I don't use store eggs when I bake unless I literally have no eggs left over in the winter.

Curious if others feel the same way or if I'm the crazy one

Or raw flour, or raw anything pretty much...

And that's fine! I totally get why people don't, I just do.

I am just trying to learn, but I thought all eggs contain salmonella, or is it just some infected eggs?

I don't know. I *think* Only eggs laid by infected birds? But can't be certain

I think all chicken has salmonella, the egg may or may not. Usually not.

IMHO, It's not worth the risk. Not sure I qualify for this poll though because I think raw dough is gross.

If you accept the risks, you do you! Nothing wrong with it as long as it doesn't hurt others.

Everyone's qualified cause everyone has an opinion

Not all eggs have salmonella. Its a disease. That’s like saying everyone has autism. The parents would have something to have the child autistic. Just like the hen would have salmonella for the eggs to have salmonella. (I hope I’m not offending anyone. It was the best example.) Also the chance of getting salmonella is SUPER LOW. I’ve always eating raw eggs in cookie. Granted I do know where my eggs are coming from. But I would still take that risk with store bought as long as it says approved by ___ and free range.
