Cooking the egg or egg-containing food product to at least 140 F (60 C) kills the bacteria. So answer C--eating the baked product--will earn you two points. Foods containing raw eggs, such as homemade ice cream, cake batter, mayonnaise, and eggnog, carry a Salmonella risk, but their commercial counterparts don't. Commercial products are made with pasteurized eggs; that is, eggs that have been heated sufficiently to kill bacteria, and also may contain an acidifying agent that kills the bacteria.

at the start, in simple terms a small variety of eggs comprise salmonella, which permits... while an egg does have salmonella, that's like that that's a small volume, as a results of fact chilly (the grocery's freezer, your refrigerator) is bacteriostatic (stops bacterial strengthen, or critically slows it). And salmonella would not manufacture somewhat a lot of pollution (that i'm attentive to), so ingesting the place they have been, as long as they are lifeless, could desire to be fantastic
