cookie dough tastes better than cookies, so why waste the time to bake cookies?

Update:

thanks guys for being concerned about my well being.

What about just a little bit of cookie dough?

    Well it does have raw eggs in it but I can't resist either. I've never gotten sick no know anyone who has gotten sick. I mean mayo has raw eggs in it but the vinegar kills the bacteria I guess. Over easy eggs are not completely cooked so take the warning with a grain of salt LOL !! Maybe a couple bites while your baking them :)

    The store bought cookie dough isn't such a concern as those eggs have been psatuized.

    Make your own dough. Use an egg replacer insteadn of the eggs and then sit down and enjoy the dough. If you get sick of it you you canbake it up with no problem.

    They sure do taste pretty good uncooked, raw eggs aside, but they keep longer and are easier to transport when cooked, so you can share the goodness with all. It's hard to take a bowl of melty cookie dough somewhere and tell everyone with their grimey hands to dig in. Don't you agree?

    Cookie dough is RAW Ingredients that can harbor bacteria! You can and will get sick. Just bake them. You wouldn't eat a raw egg would you?

    Source(s): I bake a lot.

    Because cookie dough has raw eggs in it and there's a greater risk of salmonella when eating raw eggs.

    Well i personally like baked cookies better. i guess im just more traditional like that. however i always eat a little while cooking them. (:

  • Because you can get salmonella from the raw cookie dough and die. If u didn't run that risk, then, well, **** cookies man.
