i-think-that Raw cookie dough is a thousand times better than the cookie it becomes. Please just serve me the cookie dough. Cookies are dry and boring; cookie dough is moist and flavorful. It's already perfection ancom-heart

I love me some cookie dough...

With that said, it isn't the eggs that are the problem in raw dough, it's the flour.

You can get seriously sick from eating raw flour.

With that, you would change your tune if you had one of my cookies.

Chocolate chip cookies with brown butter.

It's based on Alton Brown's chocolate chip cookie recipe, I just added brown butter and replaced some of the milk with soy sauce...

Yes, soy sauce... Trust me it works wonders.

Worth

Serious answerI know the risks. So far I have had zero problems with eating raw cookie dough in small amounts. I'm pretty healthy other than being overweight, so I can probably "tank" a bad batch of cookie dough. And if my immune system starts to go down the shitter, I would stick to the "safe" brands (a few brands are (supposedly) safe to eat raw (and I would check the veracity of that claim if it comes up) or just stop if my immune system was completely out of commission).

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.


6. Defend your opinion


This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
