      Seriously though, why does baking remove the deliciousness?

    If the FDA would like to recommend a better way to eat my feelings I’d love to hear it.

    But this time it’s not the eggs, though. It’s the prospect of E. coli-contaminated flour.

    Actually, it’s usually the flour that’s the problem. I think all of the past several major outbreaks involving cookie dough have been linked to the flour, because flour is a raw food product itself and unlike eggs, which are often pasteurized, not heat treated. Although I believe more companies are heat treating the flour they use for cookie dough.

    The flour currently in my kitchen was purchased at least one move ago. Last time I moved was 2014, so my flour’s clean. Bring on the cookie dough!

      I never had e. coli but I had bad stomach flus and the upside is losing weight without any effort whatsoever. So cookie dough + possibility of shedding 3 lbs makes the potential diarrhea worth it.

      No, no nononoono NOOOOOOOOOOO!

      Not worth it. Its not just diarrhea. Its a fucking nightmare of fever / vomiting / then diarrhea - then OMG IS THAT BLOOD - holy shit I am going to die. Middle of the night trip to the ER (while vomiting/trying not to shit on oneself) All culminating in getting a horrendously painful antibiotic shot in your ass (by a cute Dr who is seriously seeing you at your very worst) all while sobbing because your stomach will not stop cramping.

      Nope. No cookie dough for me or anyone in my family.

      To top it off I was 10 maybe 12 and an ebola outbreak had been all over the news. I kept hearing people say e-coli and I thought I was dying of EBOLA.

      Edit: I didn’t even get it from cookie dough. Ice cream was the culprit.

    Ok, so if you did something like…microwaved the flour for 30 seconds, would that work?

      I doubt it. It needs to be heated to >140 degrees for a while, and I would not be confident that you could manage this properly in a microwave.

      As a general rule, proper sterilization is more complicated than people think. You’re probably not washing your hands correctly either.

    Other than ice cream, where can one get safe cookie dough for eating?

      I wish some ice cream company would make cookie dough ice cream, hold the ice cream. The current iteration of cookie dough ice cream turns me into a gross immature kid, because I eat all of the ice cream first, and save the cookie dough for the end to eat in one glob.
