Mayonnaise also requires the use of raw eggs. Don't panic! Raw eggs are not as bad as the media would have you think. For those of you born in the 1970's or earlier, do you remember eating raw cookie dough or cake batter? Did you ever get sick? Yea, we didn't get sick either. The problem with today's eggs is not the fault of the eggs but the fault of how they are produced. Hens are overcrowded, the eggs they lay fall onto layers of poultry litter (a nice way of saying chicken poop) where they are stepped on by chickens whose feet have poop on them. Many chickens die & the eggs are in contact with the carcases as well. This is the scenario for "cage free" eggs. Chickens in battery cages suffer much worse but the eggs are probably a tiny bit cleaner due to the fact that they roll across a wire floor where the collect in a tray on the outside of the cage. Still the chicken factory is a filthy ammonia reeking mess. So what is a person to do? Simple! Buy fresh organic eggs from your local farmer! Check out the farm & see how they raise & collect the eggs. Salmonella rarely ever occurs in farm fresh eggs. In factory farming you can guarantee your eggs will make you sick if you do not cook them.
