I just finished reading and commenting on this Yahoo! Health article: http://health.yahoo.com/experts/weightkoch/8674/end-of-a-childhood-ritual;_ylt=Atjwr9ovN.uObdlCT2ZZTfIT08gF
where the writer explicitly states that she happily consumed cookie dough as a child but with the ONE in TEN-THOUSAND risk of an egg being contaminated with salmonella, she has stopped doing it for her and her kids.
I myself find it ridiculous that the 1 in 10,000 risk will prevent someone from eating raw eggs. You have the same risk (assuming your cookie dough is made with two eggs) of dying from electrocution.
In fact you have a 1 in 300 chance of being the victim of a homicide, but you still walk down your city street.
You even have a 1 in 100 chance of dying from a car accident, but you still get in your car...
Well I've had my say... what do you think?

different than the extreme content cloth of sugar, cookie dough is largely possibility loose. there's achievable of salmonella from uncooked eggs, whether or no longer they're undesirable or no longer. in case you particularly like cookie dough, make it with out the eggs, and it would be completely ok. you would be able to could characteristic slightly something to make up for the liquid interior the eggs, a pair of tablespoons of applesauce ought to paintings.

I always have a taste of certain types of cookie dough, particularly chocolate chip and sugar cookie dough. My favorite ice cream is chocolate chip cookie dough flavor. I would not, however, eat a whole bowlful.

I still eat raw cookie dough.
Just a serial risk-taker, I guess
