Eating Cookie Dough
Cookie dough is just awesome. The softer the cookie the better. Cookies fresh from the oven that fall apart before you can pull them off the pan are good cookies. Eating the dough is just the extreme of that. Unfortunately the old saying 'You can never have too much of a good thing,' doesn't apply here. If you get a standard size Pillsbury Chocolate Chip tube, I wouldn't recommend eating more than 3 inches, unless you want your stomach turning over. I say this, but one night back in the dorms, we cracked open a tube, and we all ate a pretty good amount. There was still a quarter tube left after we had our fill, but then Garet took the rest down. I assume he has a stomach of steel or something.
Also there's the risk of salmonella. A lot of perishable products you buy at the store use pasteurized eggs, so in theory there isn't a worry there. On the other hand if you are eating cookie dough you made yourself, you might want to hold back. Before you start scarfing down the store bought dough, consider that Pillsbury does not recommend eating raw cookie dough. I've consumed at least 3 rolls/tubes of this stuff and I haven't gotten sick, but as they say on those silly stock commercials, past performance is not indicative of future results.
So enjoy at your own risk.
Posted by ramk at October 16, 2003 12:41 AMI've been eating raw dough (homemade and store bought) for as long as I can remember and have never been struck down by a disease.
When I was about 12 I thought it'd be yummy to make a batch of brownie dough to eat raw rather than cooking. All that sugar (I didn't eat all of the dough) made my tummy a little uneasy, but I'm fairly sure that the eggs had little to do with that.
Posted by: Andrew at October 16, 2003 05:41 PMEver tried eating icing? I recommend the Betty Crocker Milk Chocolate cake frosting. After you open it, you just put it in the fridge, and the next time you wanna eat some either eat it cold or pop it in the microwave for 10 or 15 seconds. That gets it just warm enough usually.

cookie dough is the grossest stuff i've ever tasted. i think it subconsciously reminds me of playdoh
Posted by: Jackson at October 20, 2003 06:46 PMPlay-doh doesn't taste so bad. Maybe a little salty, but otherwise it's ok.
Posted by: Ram at October 20, 2003 08:16 PMYou haven't had cookie dough until you've eaten MY chocolate chip cookie dough made with TWO sticks of butter. My Oatmeal Raisin dough is pretty darn good, too. Never got worms either... isn't that what mom always said?!
Posted by: kjo at October 21, 2003 06:24 PMI used to eat only the baked cookies from my chocolate chip cookie dough made from boxed cookie mix. Now, after the initial batch(es), I find that I enjoy the dough more. Why?
Because it's cold -- sort of like ice cream. It also takes longer to eat because I am aiming for the chips in the dough... one chip at a time.
Yummmmm!
i love eating cookie dough (store bought) i think that it has one of the best tastes in the world. i absolutely love it!!!
Posted by: Erin at April 22, 2004 05:06 PMif you want a real challenge for eating cookie dough try the 32 oz. family size! the best cooki dough is the chocolate chips with peanut butter that is the best!!!!
Posted by: keith at June 20, 2004 03:12 PMya cookie dough tastes amazing...but how could u get worms....its not like ur eating worms...also i have this bin of cookie do and i snack on it so much but i dont gain anything so i dont think its that fattning
Posted by: karlie-jo at December 8, 2004 03:11 PMI don't understand why people worry so much about not eating cookie dough. As long as you keep it proportional, you shouldn't have a problem. Plus it tastes so good!
Posted by: James at June 22, 2005 09:21 AMHey I heard that when you eat cookie dough wroms form. Because the flour in the cookie dough has tiny bugs. And when they drop into your stomach they expand and make huge worms!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Sara at April 7, 2007 06:39 PMJames, what would a "proportional amount" be? I just ate about three spoonfuls of Classic Cookie Dough Snickerdoodle mix...and I realize I'm a fool. Ah, well. :(
Posted by: Elliott at September 15, 2007 11:39 PMI don't recommend eating an entire pound in one sitting. I may or may not be speaking from experience >:)
Posted by: mmmm...oww at October 31, 2008 02:10 AMDoes eating raw cookie dough give you worms?
Posted by: James at November 8, 2008 09:12 PMI LOVE COOKIE DOUGH, IT TASTES LIKE RAINBOWS!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Deanna at December 10, 2008 10:37 PMTry Zuzzy's Cookie Dough. It's AWESOME! It's advertised as 'ready to eat or bake'. The double chocolate chip is my fav!!!
Posted by: jeff at January 5, 2009 01:08 PMi 100% love chocolate cookie dough.
why?
because i love that it's not burnt and it has a mushie gushie felling in the inside while the outside has way more taste and flavor to it then a baked one!!!!
the chocolate chips are the best part about it because if it's baked then it would be melted and if it's not baked then it would be cold and you can actually feel that it's in your mouth!!!!
thats the part that i love about it
but what scares me the most about it is that it can probably give me a tape worm i think
Cookie dough tastes better than the shit that comes out of the oven.
Posted by: sdfsf at July 1, 2009 03:08 AMI just ate 3 little chunks of pilsbery cookie dough. My mom saw the information I was reading, then took it away from me. I was too, concerned about the whole worm thing, but it tastes so good, Im like Aww just one more!!!!!!!! Im kinda freaked though. I used to love to eat cookie dough!!
I still do, but Im kinda scared now. Should I be?
i usually eat cookie dough raw, homemade or pilsbury. tonight i ate a third of a tube, and now its 6am and i have been regretting it. i have been shitting nothing, have a sore asshole and have tired legs and feet from pushing on the toilet so hard. never again.
Posted by: stephen at January 26, 2010 08:01 AMI love cookie dough...and almost every week i eat a whole tube of cookie dough myself...i have done it about 7-10 times and i dont regret it...Its very tasty non dangerous(they pastureize the eggs) and i dont gain any weight!much better than baked cookies...cookie dough is the best!
Posted by: Jeremy at March 10, 2010 06:37 PMmy teacher is a little crazy in the brain and thinks that cookie dough is the most amazing thing ever and that if she keeps on wrighting enough letters to the olympics, cookie dough eating can be an offical sport
