Honey, if you're drinking raw eggs you're going to die of food poisoning long before the diabetes takes you!

You're a brave woman!

I doubt it, there is very little chance of getting salmonella eating raw eggs. The risk is about 1 in 20,000 - 30,000, while the risk of dying in an accidental drowning is 1 in 1,000 and 1 in 6500 chance of dying from a slip and fall. I have been doing it since I was 14 so 40 years so far, so good. grin

Quote
Salmonella Risk of Raw Eggs May Be Lower Than Originally Thought

In the late 1990s, the U.S. government reported that as many as 20% of all U.S. chickens were contaminated with salmonella. However, by 2005, that had dropped to 16%.

A 2002 study by U.S. Department of Agriculture found that the risk of egg-borne salmonella was less than previously thought. The USDA study found that of the 69 billion eggs produced each year in the U.S., only 2.3 million are contaminated with salmonella. That�s 1 in every 30,000 eggs. Even then, the salmonella may have not even penetrated the shell, so smart handling and additional washing of the egg can decrease that risk.

Children, the elderly and immuno-compromised should probably avoid raw eggs entirely. If you are a healthy adult, you have to make your own decisions about the occasional consumption of raw eggs in dishes or dressings. While the odds of contracting salmonella from eggs is fairly slim � 1 in 30,000 � there are risks, so be aware of them. Health experts advise people to store eggs in the refrigerator, use them within two weeks, cook them thoroughly, and not eat them raw.


If you are eating raw eggs daily because you think they are somehow more healthy than cooked ones, eat at your own risk, but realize there�s really no reason for it. Eat �em scrambled and you�ll do just as well. And if you�ve ever tried to down a glass of raw eggs, you�ll now they taste better cooked, anyway.

..pico de whatever..
Pico de coyote? [Linked Image from planetsmilies.com]
Pico de armadillo?
Pico de polecat?
Pico de possum?

Sorry, but I am reminded that on this thread there was once a Lone Star
offering of "Roadkill Chili", so I think caution is highly appropriate!

I wasn't aware you could safely eat raw eggs. Huh.

Oh I'm sure she won't mind, Ill type it up.

Though I'm sure shredded suet is a difficult ingredient to get in the US and its essential for the dumplings.
