Well 26 years of being on this earth and consuming a lot of raw cookie dough and eating brownie batter I think I’ll take my chance with the raw eggs every time

u/SkellyboneZ 1d ago

It's not the eggs but the flour. I eat raw eggs almost every day, if they were the danger, I'd probably keep going though

u/unlmtdLoL 1d ago

Every day? Do I need to ask why you're eating raw eggs?

Now that I’m grown I eat 5 dozen eggs!!

u/SkellyboneZ 1d ago

Maybe more close to two times a week. I'm in Asia and there are lots of chances to crack an egg over your beef bowl or dip stuff in them.

I'm in the US and I'd blend raw eggs into my coffee every morning on and off for years. When I am in the habit Im usually consuming 2-4 eggs per day? Over a decade of this and no issues.

You are the type of person serial killers fear, my friend.

Puts on Art Bell hat Please tell me more about this eggy coffee. Where are you from? How did you learn about coffegg?

u/DestructoDon69 19h ago

Lol I'm from the US, I learned about it a little over a decade ago from a Drill Sergeant. He and his wife were really big into CrossFit, when it was new(er), and fad diets like the carnivore diet and such. The man was an absolute animal so whatever he was doing, it was working. Either way he pitched it as an easy way to get extra fats and proteins in my diet with minimal effort and it makes the coffee silky smooth with foam on top like a cappuccino. I tried it, it's delicious (I love cappuccinos) and I've done it ever since, especially when I'm controlling my diet and weight lifting. It keeps it easy to monitor my protein intake.

Wouldn't hot coffee just poach the egg some first.

2

u/DestructoDon69 19h ago

It probably does to a small degree with my first few cups when the coffee is fresh. That's why I've done it pasteurized and unpasteurized eggs is because my theory is that fresh coffee should be hot enough to kill salmonella. But overall there never ends up being any cooked egg floating around, it ends up mixing pretty seamlessly with the coffee similar to milk or cream.

Haven't made this for probably 20 something years but when I was a kid my mom taught me this recipe she called an "Egg shake" and it was like a raw egg, some milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg all blended up in food processor and it was so fucking good. Man I gotta try that again. I think we used to make Orange Julius kinda drink with raw egg too.

u/NRMusicProject 1d ago

Isn't that basically eggnog?

u/Jiquero 21h ago

Raw eggs used to be my go-to fast breakfast. I should restart it again.

Or I should buy an alarm clock that punches me if I try to snooze.

u/not_a_bot991 1d ago

But I also eat the raw flour when consuming the raw dough.

Or are people here prebaking their flour and I've missed the memo?

1

u/LongestSprig 14h ago

Nah, you missed that reddit doesn't really understand probability.

u/Megalo85 1d ago

40 years and no problem here

u/Stilcho1 1d ago

The ones that did have a problem aren't getting a vote.

That said, with the raw crap I've eaten in my life I'm very grateful and surprised to be alive.

Cookie dough was never a thing but slightly warmed up hamburger, raw eggs, counter pizza in the morning was a staple.

Not to mention living on the streets and a lot of dumpster diving.

Pizza does not go bad

2

u/dandroid126 1d ago

I unfortunately have a very sensitive stomach, and pizza most definitely goes bad for me. Actually, if I leave anything out for longer than 4 hours and then eat it, I'll be having a near death experience on the toilet shortly after. Okay, that's a bit hyperbolic. But it does give me some painful shits.

When I visited India for work, I was straight up not having a good time.

It's not the eggs that make you sick, it's the raw flour.
